Prima Firefly Cards

September 25, 2012

Happy Tuesday, everyone!!  I hope you had a wonderful weekend!!  It was a rough football weekend for us...the Griz lost there homecoming game (ugh), Auburn lost by 2 points to LSU, and Arizona didn't even score against Oregon.  Blech...let's hope this weekend gets better!!

I created a couple more cards for the last Prima Firefly Friday feature, which went up on the blog last week. So, today I wanted to share those cards with you!!  The Firefly collection has some really amazing colors, and I think you will be surprised that both of these cards I created came from the very same collection.  Check them out!
Instructions:
1. Make A2 card from red cardstock.
2. Cut a strip of orange paper, and adhere to the right side.
3. Diecut three pinked squares from floral paper, then adhere to the right side.
4. Adhere the bling border to the left side, then adhere crocheted trim right next to it.
5. Cut a banner from yellow paper, then add the sentiment to it with alpha stickers.
6. Adhere the banner to the front using foam adhesive, then cluster a paper butterfly and flowers to the left side of it.
7. Accent the crochet trim and flowers with leftover jewels from the border.
