Tropical Celebration

When your pretty print paper has a big pattern, a three narrow strips can add a lot of impact. I paired with one my favorite new embossing folders.

Card Base: Cut Old Olive 8 ½ X 11 paper in half width wise. 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 Front: Cut Old Olive paper 4 X 5 1/4

Emboss card front with Coastal Weave embossing folder.

Cut 3 strips of Topical Oasis paper 1/2 X 5 1/4

Attach these 3 strips on top 1/2 of embossed card front.

Attach this card front to card base.

Stamp sentiment with Old Olive ink on Whisper White paper. Die cut with die from Stitched So Sweetly die.

Attach this die cut sentiment to card front with Stampin Dimensionals.

You have finished your card!

If you would like to cover the envelope flap as shown in the picture. Cut a strip of print paper 2 1/4 X 6. Directions can be found on this blog post: http://www.scrappinwithjoni.com/blogs/covering-your-envelope-flap
