B ridge Card-Photo Frame
Project Recipe
Whisper White Thick Card Stock
a) Cut to 4.25" x 8"
.....- Score at 1.25"; 2.5"; 5.5"; 6.75"
.....- Fold, crease and burnish score lines so shorter ends are at the 'front' and larger panel is set back
b) Cut another piece to 1.25" x 5.5". This will be for the bridge piece
c) Scraps for stamping peonies on.
Cut DSP. Pay attention to patterns and direction of patterns!:
a) 1 piece - 1" x 5.25"
.....4 pieces - 1" x 4"
.....1 piece - 2.75" x 3.75"
Adhere photo (cropped to 2.5' x 3.5 or so) to piece of 2.75' x 3.75' DSP.
Adhere DSP to Whisper White, using liquid glue or Stampin' Seal
a) 5.25" x 1" DSP to the 5.5" x 1.25" WW Thick for the bridge
b) 4 pieces of DSP (1"x4") to the 4 scored panels, 2 to the 'sides' and 2 to the 'fronts'. If your DSP has pattern on both sides you could use one pattern for the inside and the other for the front.
c) 2.75' x 3.75" DSP (with photo) to the centre back section of card.
d) Adhere the bridge strip to the front of the card, lining up the bottom and sides (put glue only on the bottom 1" of the 2 outside panels).
e) the card will fold flat and will fit into a medium sized envelope for mailing.
Stamp the the medium peony and small peony and 4 leaves on the scrap of WW using Gray Granite Ink.
a) colour the peonies with Petal Pink blends;
b) colour the leaves with Mint Macaron blends.
Using Peony Dies or fussy cutting - cut out the two flowers and the 4 leaves you stamped and coloured.
Using liquid glue attach a leaf or 2 to the 'bridge' and maybe 1 or 2 to the peonies. Using Stampin' Dimensionals attach the peony flowers to the bridge, over the leaves.
