Special Guest Artist Chari Hogsett

Hello Everyone: Today I am featuring a trio of cards made by our Guest Artist this week, Chari Hogsett. I challenged Chari to make several cards using some of our new Web colors along with
some Felt Blossoms.  Here are Chari's creations:

Each card is very different.  First up is a card which uses our new Burgundy Web.

Isn't this a gorgeous color?  The patterned paper behind it is a scrap of patterned paper.   Chari added a large flower put together with Heritage Felt Blossoms, a Felt Leaf and one of our medium size buttons. A smaller flower was added to the bottom right corner.  To finish the card, a length of our Burgundy Twine was adhered to the right side of the card and a lovely sentiment is pop-dotted over the twine.

Next we have a card using our new Navy Blue Web along with coordinating colors of our Felt Blossoms made into a floral focal point.

To start with, the card background was created by embossing a piece of white card stock and adhering it to a navy blue card.  The web was then added to the top of  the  embossed card using Matte Medium, a die cut shape added over the top with a message and finally the Felt Blossom flower was added for the finishing touch.  Easy and lovely!

Now for the last card.  This card features three flowers made with a mix of large, medium and small Felt Blossoms.

Chari went to her patterned paper scrap box and adhered several narrow strips of paper to either side of a white card.  Then she adhered several sizes of Heritage Felt blossom flowers to the left side of the card.  All were finished with different color buttons from our wonderful Button Collection.  To finish, "thank you" was stamped on a die cut scrap of white card stock and adhered to the card.  Another easy and very "doable" card!

Hope you will pull out those Felt Blossoms, create some beautiful flowers using our darling buttons and attach some new Web colors to your cards.  Have fun creating!
