T hese are the cards I created from my Mystery Monday Class
Project Recipe
CLUE#1
5½" x 8½" Thick Basic White cardstock scored at 4¼" and folded in half to create the card base.
5¼" x 4" Basic Black cardstock
4-1/8" x 5-3/8" Basic Black cardstock (This isn't in the video until I show my cards at the end)
Strip of Basic Black cardstock if you have white embossing embossing powder. If you don't have white embossing powder then you will use a strip of Basic White cardstock and black ink for the sentiment.
5" x 3¾" Basic White cardstock and scrap for large flower.
5¼" x 4" Basic White cardstock
Large flower die and coordinating die set
grey or black ink and coordinating ink for the inside of the flower(s).
Blends or another coloring medium
White heat emboss powder, Versamark & Heat tool. If you don't have white embossing powder, you can use Black ink.
Adhesives such as Stampin' Seal, Dimensionals, Liquid Glue
Heat tool
Ribbon, Wink of Stella, Gems or any other embellishments
First I stamped the flowers across the bottom of the 5" x 3¾" Basic White cardstock and on the separate scrap of white cardstock with Polished Pink ink.
Use the stamp to color the center. If you don't have a stamp for the center, color them in with Stampin' blends.
I used the coordinating die to cut out the single flower. If you don't have a die for the flower you can fussy cut it out.
I embossed a sentiment from the stamp set onto a piece of ½" wide Basic Black cardstock with white embossing powder. Don't forget to use your embossing buddy or a bit of cornstarch to keep the powder from adhering to anything but the Versamark.
I adhered the stamped layer to the 5¼" x 4" black cardstock layer. Next, I added those layers to the front of my cardbase.
Adhere the sentiment strip toward the bottom of the card over the stamped flowers.
Stamp and color a flower onto the 5¼" x 4" Basic White cardstock toward the bottom on either the right or left side, then (this isn't shown in the instructions, but I added it later) adhere the cardstock to a piece of 4-1/8" x 5-3/8" Basic Black cardstock.
Adhere the single flower that you cut out to the front of the card with Dimensionals overlapping the white or black strip with the sentiment.
Embellish as desired with Wink of Stella, ribbon, gems, etc.
TA-DA!
Thanks for playing along!
