My Peace Swap Card Tutorial

Materials:
1. Ivory Pre-cut Circle window card
2. Handmade paper in sky blue
3. Xacto Knife
4. Flower paper punches
5. Leafy die cut
6. Pearl flat backs
7. MadOzziee Slotted Quilling Tool
8. MadOzziee Sea Green Quilling Oodle (few strips)
9. MadOzziee Peachy Peach Quilling Oodle (few strips)
10. Punched Butterflies
11. Printed card stock with Cupids
12. Blue Eyelets and Eyelet setter
13. Craft Glue
Method:
I first wanted to use a complete white look for my peace card but then I wanted to use this fabulous cupid printed card stock too. So I used white and this lovely blue colour for a cool and calm effect.
First up I tore by hands fitting almost 1/3 of this card.
I used my scorer to score vertical lines which give it a subtle look.
I pasted the blue handmade paper onto the card. As you can see some paper covers the circle of the window. I flipped open the card and using my Xacto knife I trimmed the paper.
Then I assemble some flowers which I had from my stash of die cuts. The middle par of the flower is actually a snowflake punch layered twice in the Cupid Card stock.
I added the flat pearl and the leafy branches and glued it to the bottom right of the card.
In Step 6 you can see I punched a 2 ¾ circle to add in the window. As you can see the printed paper has chandeliers and semi-circular design. I imitated that design in the window used a blue eyelet and fixing the printed circle in the window from inside of the card as seen in Photo 7.
In Step 8 I added a trio of butterflies and added some glittered accents in the middle of butterflies.
I glued the peace symbol on the bottom right of the card.
Finally I stamped using wooden blocks the word PEACE in dark bkue ink.
And the card is ready!
