Instructions: The ready card base from smooth white cardstock measures, 5 1/2″ by 8 1/2″. Choose the designer paper from Hollyhock Paper Collection and cut to size measuring 4 3/4″ by 7 3/4″. Glue the panel on Luxe Gold cardstock creating a sleek border of 1/16″ on all the sides. Layer the panel on the ready card base using double-sided tapes for extra dimensions.
For the top mat, choose the coordinating designer paper from the same paper collection and cut measuring 3 3/4″ by 7 3/4″. Mat it on a white cardstock making a delicate border of 1/16″ on all sides. Layer the panel on the card front using double-sided tape.
Cut 3 each die cuts from white and Luxe gold cardstock using HCD2-7426 Oval Filigree Frame Die. Prepare 3 sets by gluing white behind the gold one. Choose a bright color paper from the designer paper and cut the shadow. Glue it behind one die set and shape it softly with your hands. Layer these die cuts on the card front as shown using tiny glue dots.
For Hollyhock flowers, stamp a couple of large, medium, and small flowers using Tea Rose on flower shaping paper and cut the flowers using its coordinating dies. Color the flowers using the same ink and add highlights using Red Geranium archival ink. Shape the flower using its coordinating mold and then add a few more strokes using the flower shaping kit. Once done, press the centers and add glitter balls. Finally, brush a thin layer of crystal lacquer on the flowers and keep them from drying.
Stamp, color and cut the foliage fromHollyhock Stem & Blooms Cling Stamp Set and color them using Leaf Green and highlight them using Olive green and shape them using a deluxe flower shaping kit.
Once all the elements are ready, assemble the card as shown and complete it by adding a sentiment from Celebrate Love Sentiment Cling Stamp Set.
