DIY First Edition Bloom & Wonder Card

The First Edition Bloom & Wonder Pad is simply gorgeous, if you haven't already purchase it then take a look at previous blog post! It is currently available at CraftStash & Amazon

My first make with the Bloom & Wonder Paper Pad was this 'Bloom' card, I really wanted to show off the variety of patterns in the paper pad and play with my favourite prints.

First Edition Bloom and Wonder Card

To make this card you will need:

  • First Edition Bloom & Wonder Paper Pad
  • Dovecraft Rose Gold Card
  • 5" x 7" Card Blank
  • Paper cutter
  • Craft foam
  • Double sided tape
I used my Cricut Explore Air to cut out some parts of the card (heart & bloom frame)

Start by cutting out a 5" x 7" rectangle, this will be the background to your card, I used the first sheet in the paper pad for this (it's my favourite!). Use double sided tape and attach this to your card blank.

Next cut out a rectangle 5" x 2" and stick to your background paper using double sided tape. I attached it just above halfway up the background paper.

Another rectangle... this time 5" x 4", attach this to the card blank. I positioned it further to the right.

Next open up Cricut Design Space and search 'bloom'(#MBAFC0C0) in images and 'frame'(#M418F7B) and insert them on to your canvas.
Resize the frame to 3" wide and resize the word 'bloom' so that it fits inside the frame, and overlaps slightly.
In layers highlight both layers and weld them.
Then cut using Dovecraft Rose gold card.

Cut a square to fit the back of the Bloom Frame and attach using craft foam, then attach the frame to the card blank.

Finish with a heart cut from your favourite paper & voila!

DIY Bloom & Wonder Ideas Notebook

If you are anything like me then you will always get the greatest craft inspiration when you have no way of noting it down! I always tend to get sparks of inspiration for card making and crafting at random times, and I always forget them. To try and conquer this I decided to make myself an Ideas notebook, a small notebook that will fit in my handbag to allow me to write down these random craft ideas, making sure I don't forget them (though I may look at them later and wonder what the hell I was thinking). After a quick look through the Cricut Design Space I found a notebook shape that looked perfect, small size and easy to remove and add more pages. I decided to make the notebook using the First Edition Bloom & Wonder paper pad I had recently received from Trimcraft, it is gorgeous and I love just flicking through the paper pad so thought it might make a good inspiration sparker.
