Translucent Florals Clean and Simple Card

 Patty Bennett created a beautiful series of cards using our new, Online Exclusive DSP - Delightful Florals - that coordinates with the Translucent Florals Bundle in the new, mini catalog! She also makes use of the interesting shape from the Nested Essentials Dies along with a long sentiment. This is my version that we will be making at my Senior Center class tomorrow!



Measurements:  

  • Lemon Lime Twist (ret): 1/2 sheet, 
  • Pretty Peacock (ret): 2 3/4" x 4 3/4" 
  • Delightful Floral (OE): 3" x 5 1/4" (green), 1 1/4" x 5 1/4" (floral)
  • Basic White: 2" x 4 1/4" (label), 4" x 5 1/4" (inside), scraps
To Make This Card:

  • Fold Lemon Lime Twist base in half.  Crease well. Then, trim away 1" from front flap. You can toss this piece.
  • Attach Green Floral piece to front flap.
  • Add White, inside piece to the inside of card.  Attach 1 1/4" floral strip to the right side.
  • Die cut the larger (but not the largest) Nested Essentials Die shown in the image above from Pretty Peacock.  Cut a smaller one from White. Assemble together. Set aside.
  • Stamp larger flower in Berry Burst ink onto scrap of White.  I also added a stamped center in the same color. Die cut with coordinating die.
  • Ink up double "leaves" in Lemon Lime Twist ink.  Sponge a little Pretty Peacock into onto the base of the "leaves" with a Sponge Dauber. (Pretty cool, huh! It matches the paper!) Also, die cut this image from the coordinating die.
  • Arrange "flower" and "leaves" onto labels, as shown. Stamp desired sentiment below die cuts in Pretty Peacock.
  • Attach label piece to front of card with Dimensional.  Be sure to also pop up/support the flower as well!
  • Finish with Tinsel Gems 4.
