Happiest of birthday's to Sheilah.
For this card, I picked out the stamp set I wanted to use along with petal pink card stock, then decided to find some designer series paper that would match up.
All measurements are in inches.
Petal Pink 4¾ x 6¾ (1st layer), 2¼ x 2¼ (sentiment), 1 x 3 (flower heads), Shimmery White 10 x 7 scored at 5 (card base) , 2 ¼ x 1⅜ (sentiment).
DSP 2½ x 6¾ (2nd layer).
(cs) = card stock, (dsp) = designer series paper, (ef) = embossing folder, (r) = retired, (ss) = stamp set.
- Lightly mark the 1st layer down the middle using a pencil.
- Now stamp the leaves from the layered with kindness (ss) twice at the bottom of the lefthand side in pool party,
- Stamp 3 of the larger flower heads and 2 of the buds in petal pink on petal pink (cs). Fussy cut these flowers and put to one side for now.
- Emboss the lefthand side using the subtle (ef). This needs to be carried out using two passes though the big shot. Remove the pencil mark.
- Adhere the parisian blossoms (dsp) down the right hand side using liquid glue.
- Using narrow tear & tape adhere some (r) calypso coral ombre ribbon down the middle of the card along the (dsp) edge.
- Stamp the happy birthday sentiment from the layered with kindness (ss) in petal pink on petal pink (cs) and then again, pool party on shimmery white (cs).
- Cut out the petal pink happy birthday using the label me lovely punch and the pool party happy birthday using the label me fancy punch.
- Cut a piece of the (r) calypso coral ombre ribbon about 10 inches long.
- Add some tear & tape or snail at the back of the petal pink sentiment and zig zag the ribbon back and fourth across the adhesive. Then trim the ends.
- Attach the shimmery white sentiment on top of the petal pink sentiment using dimensional pads.
- Add dimensional pads to the back of the petal pink sentiment and attach to the card base.
- Use glue dots to adhere the flower head to the leaves.
- Job done!
I found this a very quick and easy card to make.
Will be back again soon with more cards, thanks for popping by.
