Hand Penned + Scallop Contour = beautiful card |
|
H ave you seen the Hand Penned papers? They are beautiful! This is a card I made to share with some demonstrators who have been mentors to me. I am on the Stampin’ Up! incentive trip in Maui this week and I brought some of these cards with me.
Card Base: Cut Basic White 8 ½ X 11 paper in half widthwise. You now have two pieces 8 ½ X 5 ½ . Fold one of the pieces in half lengthwise for your card front. The card front now measures 4 ¼ X 5 ½.
Card Front: Cut Highland Heather from the largest scallop contour die. Use the next size scallop die to cut print paper. Attach print paper to the center of Highland Heather die cut.
Cut 15” of ribbon, I used Soft Succulent ribbon. When your print paper includes lots of colors, you have lots of choices for ribbon to use. Insert each end of ribbon through the third scallop from the bottom of the scallop piece. Tie a knot, I used a glue dot to keep the knot in place.
Attach die cut pieces with ribbon knot to the front of the basic white card base.
Now it is up to you to make the card whatever you need it to be. Write a note inside or stamp a sentiment.
