Another confirmation card? {Kort & Godt}

Hi, crafty friends. I’m back today with another confirmation card made for the Kort & Godt gallery blog. This might be my last one for 2024, it’s definitely the last one for the spring confirmation season. There might be some coming for the fall season, I just don’t know yet.

This card started out with me playing with the cotton thread from Kort & Godt. I wanted to something with it besides tying it in bows, and crocheting came to mind. I crocheted three flowers in different colors, and that was my starting point. I created a subtle background using the Watercolor Stripes stencil from Altenew with VersaMark ink, Sticky embossing powder and Distress Glitter in the Rock Candy color. This gives a soft tone on tone sparkle on the white cardstock and doesn’t distract too much from the flowers. I thread the flowers through to the back of the panel, used some tape to hold the thread down on the back and mounted it using foam tape onto a top fold white card base.

I die cut the leaf circle die twice; once from vellum (I used Heavyweight translucent vellum from My Favorite Things), and once from Sprout cardstock from Concord & 9th. I offset them a bit, and used small amounts of liquid glue to adhere them to the card. I also die cut Konfirmant a few times from pink cardstock and adhered them together for a stacked, dimensional look. Once I added my die cut to the card, however, it got lost, so I die cut a layer from black cardstock from Papertrey Ink and glued that on top. That did the trick. I used a sentiment sticker to complete the sentiment and added some faceted pearls as a finishing touch.
