In my last post I shared how to make a greeting card with natural flowers.  Today, I am sharing another greeting card made with natural flowers, except different ones.  These are the flowers and leaves I used:

Following the same process that I shared in my previous post on how to make a greeting card with natural flowers, I laid the selected flowers and leaves face down onto Stampin’ Up! Watercolor Paper as seen in this picture.

I ran the watercolor paper, flowers, and leaves through the Big Shot, and this is the outcome.  Looks like a mess, right?  Well, it was as these flowers had more moisture in them than the ones I used previously.   A lot of paper towels were needed to clean up the Big Shot platform and cutting plates!

Regardless, after removing the flowers and leaves from the watercolor paper,  I had another beautiful piece of art, as shown in the picture below.

I love how the colors on the watercolor paper are so different from the colors of the natural flowers.  I think I like this outcome better than the one I discussed in my last post.   What do you think?  Here’s the card I made with the outcome.

 What do you think?  I think it’s a very pretty card.  I adhered the watercolor paper to Stampin’ Up! Pretty in Pink Card Stock (100459), and then to Lucky Limeade Card Stock (122926).  I added the beautiful pink bow to the top of the card to accent the pink from the flowers.  This bow was on a beautiful floral arrangement given to me by my daughter for breast cancer month.

 I added a few drops of glitter glue for the flowers’ stamen and added three butterflies that I covered with the Stampin’ Up! Frost White Shimmer Paint (116854).  The sentiment stamped on the bottom right of the card is from the Stampin’ Up! Trust God Stamp Set (126702).

I hope my posts have instructed you well on how to make a greeting card with natural flowers.

God’s Blessings!
