Peony Garden - Together

Peony Garden paper pack works for so many kinds of cards, but my favorite use is for Anniversary cards.

Card Base: Cut Gray Granite 8 ½ X 11 paper in half widthwise. You now have two pieces 8 ½ X 5 ½ . Fold one of the pieces in half lengthwise for your card front. The card front now measures 4 ¼ X 5 ½.

Card Mat: Cut Whisper White paper 4 X 5 ¼. Emboss with Scripty embossing folder. Attach card mat to card base.

Card Front:
Cut Petal Pink 3 ½ X 4 ⅛.
Cut Peony Garden paper 3 X 4. Attach Peony Garden paper to top of Petal Pink paper with just a narrow margin of Petal Pink showing on the sides and top of the Petal Pink paper.

Cut 12” of ¼” shimmer ribbon. Wrap ribbon around bottom of Petal Pink card front below the Peony Garden print. Tie knot in the ribbon, so the knot is to the right side. I used glue dots to keep the knot and ribbon in place.

Attach card front to card mat.

With the 2nd smallest circle in the Stitched Shapes die, cut one circle from Whisper White and 1 circle from Gray Granite. Stamp the sentiment on the white circle with Petal Pink ink. Attach Gray Granite stitched circle to card front above the knot. Attach stamped white stitched circle offset from the Gray Granite circle with dimensionals.

That’s it; you have finished your card front. For the inside of your card, cut a piece of Whisper White 4 X 5 ¼. Stamp a sentiment or write a note before attaching this piece inside your card.
