S imple, pretty thank you card using Stampin' Up! products.
Project Recipe
Cut cardstock and designer paper pieces to the following sizes using a Paper Trimmer:
- card from Poppy Parade Cardstock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
- 4" x 5-1/4" from Old Olive Cardstock
- 2" x 5-1/8" of red watercolored design from Peaceful Poppies Designer Series Paper
- 1-3/4" x 3" from Whisper White Cardstock
Pick out the large, detailed grouping of flowers die from the Poppy Moments Dies. Put it on top of the Old Olive rectangle on a platform on your cutting and embossing tool at a slight angle so the bottom edge is about 1/8" from the bottom of the cardstock and the left edge is about 1/8" from the left edge of the cardstock. Run through the tool. Use the Take Your Pick Die Brush Tip and paper-piercing tool on the Take Your Pick to remove the pieces.
Put the strip of Peaceful Poppies Designer Paper on top of some Grid Paper to protect your work surface.
Mount the grouping of small poppy flowers on stems image from the Painted Poppies Set on Block I. Ink it up with the Old Olive Ink Pad. Stamp it twice across the bottom of the designer paper strip remembering to re-ink the stamp each time. Let the stems go off the bottom edge. Let the images go off the left and right edges of the designer paper as well.
Adhere the stamped designer paper strip to the top of the Old Olive rectangle with the cut out flowers in the lower left corner. There should be a thin border of Old Olive showing on the left, top, and right sides of the designer paper.
Cut a 6" piece of Whisper White 1/4" Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon.
Lay the ribbon across the designer paper/Old Olive Cardstock rectangle so it covers the bottom seam between the cardstock and designer paper. Secure in place on the back with strips of Tear & Tape Adhesive.
Remove the protective backings from the Tear & Tape pieces and add SNAIL to the back of the Old Olive rectangle. Adhere the rectangle to the front of the Poppy Parade card.
Mount the sentiment of choice from the Peaceful Moments Set on Block H. Ink it up with the Poppy Parade Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the white rectangle.
Pick out the smaller label die with rounded ends from the Painted Labels Dies. Put it on top of the stamped sentiment on a platform on your cutting and embossing tool so the sentiment is centered. Run through the tool.
Use Stampin' Dimensionals to adhere the sentiment cut out to the front of the card so it is centered over the ribbon on the right side of the card. Leave a little space on the right side for a bow.
Cut an 8" piece of the Whisper White 1/4" Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon.
Tie the ribbon in a small bow and trim the ends.
Use a Mini Glue Dot to adhere the bow to the ribbon already on the card front on the right side of the sentiment cut out.
