I’m absolutely in love with this card!! This was a card that was shared with me at my Leadership event in Lansing Michigan last month (with Ronda Wade).
I apologize that the lighting isn’t better to truly show off this card. I started with a 4 1/4″ x 11″ Whisper White thick c/s card base, scored at 5 1/2″. I then cut a layer of regular-weight Whisper White c/s at 4″ x 5 1/4″, embossing it with the Big Shot and the Pinewood Planks embossing folder. Attach this layer to your card base. Next, cut a 3 1/4″ x 4 1/4″ piece of Night of Navy c/s. Attach a 3″ x 4″ piece of chosen Happiness Blooms designer paper to the Night of Navy c/s, then wrap a long piece of Whisper White thick Baker’s Twine around these layers 2 times. Tie in a bow and then pop up onto the card base with dimensionals. Stamp your sentiment from the Strong and Beautiful cling stamp set in Night of Navy classic ink onto a scrap of Whisper White c/s and punch out with the 2 1/4″ circle punch. I popped this layer up as well. Finally, punch out 2 flowers from a scrap of Night of Navy c/s, using one of the Bitty Blooms punches from the Bitty Blooms punch pack. (You could even punch out of the Night of Navy layer above if you haven’t attached the designer paper yet.) The centers of the flowers are punched with another punch from the same punch pack, from a scrap of Grapefruit Grove c/s. The final detail? A Real Red dot from the Happiness Blooms enamel dots.
This is the 2nd card of 10 from my Happiness Blooms card kit. I have some pre-cut kits available for purchase for $30 (plus shipping) if you don’t live locally. The card kits will include all punched and embossed shapes, enough enamel dots to complete your cards, all of the c/s, designer paper, envelopes PLUS the tutorial for 10 cards! (By the way, I have several packages of the Happiness Blooms enamel dots – they’re backordered until at LEAST March 25th.). You only have to buy the stamp set, which you can also do from my store above. A preview of all of the cards is seen below:
