Project Recipe
Create a card base from 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 piece of Grapefruit Grove cardstock. Stamp the larger floral burst image in Calypso Coral Ink, in a random pattern to cover the front of the card base. Set aside.
Stamp sentiment oval in Blueberry Bushel onto whisper white cardstock and cut with layering ovals die (use your scraps, minimum 2 1/4" x 3 1/4")
Use Detailed Trio Punch to cut corner detail in 2 corners of a 2 1/2 x 3 1/2 piece of Calypso Coral cardstock. Cut other two corners with rounded corner.
Cut 15" of ribbon and wrap punched piece two times and tie a knot on left side.
Using dimensional attach stamped sentiment oval to coral cardstock piece to complete your focal image piece. Set aside.
Using snips, trim desired floral background to add dimension to your card base. It can be as big or as small as you would like. Arrange cut out behind focal point and adhere using fine tip glue so that it will peek behind your focal image piece.
Using dimensional adhere your focal image piece to your stamped card base with laser die-cut embellishment.
Step back and look at your beautiful handmade card. Now sign it and send it off to someone you love to brighten their day!
