Project Recipe
Prepare these pieces:
Real Red Card Base - 11" x 4-1/4", scored at 2-3/4" and 5-1/2"
Real Red - 3-1/2" x 4-3/4"
Basic White - 3-1/4" x 4-1/2"
Basic White Inside - 4" x 5-1/4"
Pool Party - 4" x 2-1/2", embossed with Merry Melody embossing folder
Pool Party - 3/4" strip for sentiment
DSP - 4" x 2-1/2"
Scraps of white for 5 leaves
Fold card base on score lines. Glue embossed Pool Party piece and DSP piece to the front.
Stamp left facing candy cane in Garden Green on smaller white panel. Stamp right facing candy cane in Real Red slightly lower, crossing the green one.
Stamp 5 leaves in Garden Green on scrap white and cut out with leaf dies. Glue 3 of these sticking out where the candy canes cross. Glue the white panel to its Real Red backing. Attach this to the front of the card with dimensionals ONLY ON BOTTOM HALF.
Punch one end of the Pool Party strip with the Banners Pick a Punch. Retain the piece that was cut off to finish the other side! Stamp your sentiment in Real Red. Place the cut off piece on the strip and use as a guide to cut the other side of the banner. This piece is too short to fit back in the punch, unless you stick it onto a scrap piece before sliding it back in. Attach with dimensionals over the crossing of the candy canes.
Stamp inside sentiment in Real Red lower down on the inside white panel. Glue to the inside.
Attach one leaf with a dimensional above the sentiment. Fold the easel card up and attach one more leaf while the easel is straight.
Add a few iridescent pearls to the front of the card and stamp some leaves on your envelope.
