Gathering Moments Clean & Simple Card #2

Here is another clean & simple card that uses the gorgeous Gathering Together DSP! It is another creation by Akiko Sudano! This one uses the sheet with the White background, so the label and stamped images are also on White. It is also an awesome layout and color combination.

Measurements:

Old Olive: 1/2 sheet
Crushed Curry: 2 pcs @ 3 3/4" x 5" (1 inside)
Cajun Craze: 2 1/2" x 4"
Basic White: 3 1/2" x 4 3/4" (inside), 1 3/4" x 3 3/8" (front), scraps
Gathering Together DSP (N) (MC): 3 5/8" x 3 3/4" (white bg), 1 1/4" x 3 5/8", 1/2" x 3 1/2" (inside) (cajun print - back side)

To Make this Card:

Adhere to DSP pieces to Crushed Curry layer. You will have a narrow 1/16" border. I overlapped the 1 1/4" piece a little over the leaf piece.
Attach to folded Old Olive base with pieces of Foam Adhesive Sheet.
Stamp larger "leaf" in Old Olive, medium "leaf" in Crushed Curry, "sprig" in Cajun Craze, and "acorn" in Early Espresso. Die cut with corresponding dies. Set aside.
Die cut Cajun Craze "label" using the Textured Notes dies.
Stamp sentiment in Early Espresso ink at bottom of White layer. Then, arrange die cut pieces in upper left corner as shown, adding a bow of Early Espresso Linen Thread before adding the final, "acorn" with a Dimensional.
Adhere "label" to front of card.
Finish inside with White piece mounted to Crushed Curry. Stamp sentiment and "sprig" in Early Espresso, and strip of DSP to the bottom
Finish the front with new, scattered Streaked Dots
