E asy, pretty card using Stampin' Up! products that can be earned for FREE during Sale-A-Bration.
Cut cardstock and designer paper pieces to the following sizes using a Paper Trimmer:
- card from Old Olive Cardstock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
- 4" x 5-1/4" from Rich Razzleberry Cardstock
- 3-3/4" x 5" of oval of wildflowers on vanilla background design from Dainty Flowers 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper, cut so the oval is vertical on the vertical rectangle
- 2-1/4" x 4-1/2" from Old Olive Cardstock
- 1" x 4" from Mossy Meadow Cardstock
Mount the "Hello There" sentiment from the Eden's Garden Set on Block G. Ink it up with the Rich Razzleberry Ink Pad. Stamp the sentiment in the center of the Old Olive rectangle.
Pick out the long, skinny label with leafy ends die from the Eden Dies. Put it on top of the stamped sentiment strip on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine so the sentiment will be in the center and slightly closer to the left side. Run through the machine. Use the paper-piercing tool on the Take Your Pick to remove the pieces.
Adhere the leafy sentiment strip cut out to the bottom right side of the Dainty Flowers Designer Paper rectangle so the end of the sentiment is near the right edge. Use Paper Snips Scissors to cut off excess cardstock along the right edge.
Adhere the designer paper rectangle with sentiment strip attached to the center of the Rich Razzleberry rectangle and then to the front of the Old Olive card.
Pick out the leaf sprig die from the Eden Dies. Put it on top of one end of the Mossy Meadow strip on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine. Run through the machine. Use the paper-piercing tool on the Take Your Pick to remove the pieces. Repeat on the other end of the strip so you have two leaf sprig cut outs.
Use Multipurpose Liquid Glue or Fine-Tip Glue Pen to adhere the leaf sprig cut outs to the front of the card as shown so the bottoms of the stems are tucked behind and overlap the left side of the sentiment label cut out.
Use the mini spatula on the Take Your Pick to carefully peel up 1 large gold sequin from the sheet of Pastel Adhesive-Backed Sequins making sure you get the adhesive backing as well. Adhere it to the front of the card so it covers the end of the one leaf sprig that overlaps the front of the sentiment label cut out as shown.
Use the mini spatula on the Take Your Pick to carefully peel up 3 different size butterflies from the sheet of Brushed Brass Butterflies making sure you get the adhesive backings as well. Adhere them to the front of the card front as shown.
