Enjoy The Moment Sweetgum Friendship |
S imple, easy friendship card using Stampin' Up! products.
Cut cardstock and designer paper pieces to the following sizes using a Paper Trimmer:
- card from Crumb Cake Cardstock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
- 4" x 5-1/4" from Very Vanilla Cardstock
- 3-7/8" x 5-1/8" of rows of small, four-petal flowers on yellow background design from Harvest Meadow 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper
- 2-1/4" x 3" from Crumb Cake Cardstock
- 2-1/8" x 2-7/8" from Very Vanilla Cardstock
Adhere the piece of Harvest Meadow Designer Paper to the center of the large vanilla rectangle and then to the front of the Crumb Cake card.
Mount the "enjoy the moment" or "friendship is found in simple things" sentiment from the Enjoy The Moment Set on Block B. Ink it up with the Bumblebee Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the vertical vanilla rectangle.
Mount the set of two sweetgum balls on stems image from the Enjoy The Moment Set on Block C. Ink it up with the Crumb Cake Ink Pad. Stamp it onto Grid Paper. WITHOUT RE-INKING, stamp it in the upper left corner of the stamped vanilla rectangle so it overlays the sentiment a bit as shown. Repeat stamping around the sentiment in the upper and lower right corners as shown remembering to re-ink and stamp off each time. Let the images go off the sides of the vanilla rectangle.
Adhere the stamped vanilla rectangle to the center of the small Crumb Cake rectangle.
Cut a 2-1/4" piece of the Bumblebee 1/4" Gingham Ribbon.
Lay the ribbon diagonally across the lower left corner of the stamped and matted vanilla rectangle. Flip the rectangle over and secure the ends of the ribbon in place with small strips of Tear & Tape Adhesive.
Remove the protective backings from the Tear & Tape and add more adhesive to the back of the Crumb Cake rectangle. Adhere it to the front of the card so it is about 1" from the top, left, and right edges.
Cut a 2-1/4" piece of the Bumblebee 1/4" Gingham Ribbon.
Slide one end of the ribbon under the ribbon already on the card front near the center. Tie in place with a half knot. Trim the ends.
