Mom's Birthday Card

This is the card that I made for Mom for her 90th birthday on Wednesday! She has this SAB bundle, Wonderful World, so I wanted to give her an idea that she could duplicate herself! It's a variation of a card that I saw online.  Instead of stamping the flower, I cut one from the DSP. Also, take note of our new Quatrefoil Tile Embossing Folder from the AC!


Measurements:  

  • Orchid Oasis (N): 1/2 sheet, 3" x 4 1/4"
  • Basic White: 2 pcs 4" x 5 1/4" 1 outside layer, 1 inside), 2 3/4" x 4" (embossed), 2 1/2" x 3" (oval), scrap (sentiment)
  • Wonderful World DSP SAB (N): 1 3/4' X 5, Flower 
To Make This Card:
  • Attach one White piece and DSP to folded Orchid Oasis card, as shown.
  • Run next largest piece of White through Quatrefoil Tile EF. Attach to corresponding Orchid Oasis layer.
  • Cut Oval "frame" from new Fabulous Frames Dies in the AC, from White piece.
  • Chop flower of your choice from the DSP.  Mount to the back of the "frame" and trim to match. Add to embossed layer.
  • Now, add this entire piece to front of card with Dimensionals.
  • Stamp sentiment in Orchid Oasis onto scrap of White.  I cut out with smallest narrow banner from the Stylish Shapes Dies in the AC. Add to card where desired.
  • Next, I took some narrow crinkled seam binding and colored with Lt Orchid Oasis Blend, and tied into a double bow.  Add to card, where desired.
  • Finish with a few purple scattered gems.  I used the retired Peacock Rhinestones, but you could also color some Orchid Oasis ones with the Dk Blend.
