Embossed Floral Birthday Card |
|
I wish I could hand you this card, what doesn’t show up in the picture is the texture added to the card front by embossing the card mat and floral card front together. It gives this pretty floral paper a whole different look.
Card Base: Cut Bumblebee 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 Old Olive paper 4 X 5 1/4
Card Front: Cut Ornate Garden paper 3 7/8 X 5 ⅛
Adhere Ornate Garden card front to Old Olive mat. Emboss this piece with Dainty Diamonds embossing folder. Attach to card front.
Die cut 2nd smallest shaped die in Stitched So Sweetly dies from white paper. Stamp sentiment with Bumblebee ink on this sentiment.
Die cut next size shaped die in Stitched So Sweetly dies from vellum.
Adhere stamped white label to vellum label. Attach this piece to the card front with dimensionals.
That’s it; you have finished your card front. Wasn’t that easy? 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.
