We are here in Thailand having fun vacations at Avani Resort. The morning and evening walks at the beech are really refreshing after a long and tiring sight seeing.

Other Supplies Used: Smooth white cardstock, Ranger’s White heat embossing powder, Heat gun, Die Cutting Machine, Score Board, Distress Oxides Peeled Paint and Wilted Violet, Funnel Tray, and Acetate Sheet.

Instructions: The ready top-fold card from smooth white cardstock measures 8″ by 5 1/2″. To start with, create the first layer by choosing green color pattern paper from designer paper collection and cut to size measuring 7 1/2′ by 5″. Mat it on white cardstock, keeping all around a border of 1/16″. Thread the pocket die and adhere it as shown and layer the panel on the ready card panel using foam dots.

For the top panel, choose the card panel from the paper collection and mat it on the white cardstock giving a border of 1/16″. Secure a rectangular die from Cut Mat and Create Die 1B, cut a window and adhere an acetate sheet from behind. Choose another paper from the paper collection and stamp the sentiment using Archival ink, Cactus Flower. Secure the window from all sides with foam tape, add shaker elements and layer the card panel on a scenic paper. Cut a piece of purple paper measuring 6″ by 4 1/2″ from the same collection and layer it behind the shaker card panel keeping a white die cut from Intricate Swirl Frames Die between the layers. Layer the window panel on the ready card panel.

Stamp the images from Playful Miss Kitty Cling Stamp Set and Purr-fect Playdate Cling Stamp Set with black archival on white cardstock. Color the images using Zig Markers and cut them using their coordinating dies. Also, stamp a fence from Tulip Cart & Fence Cling Stamp Set and distress it using distress inks. Add extra die-cuts to the painted images to give them little extra strength.

For Vellum Posies, Stamp multiple images of flowers from Purr-fect Posies Cling Stamp Set using Frost White Color Box ink on Vellum Sheet. Sprinkle white heat embossing powder and dust extras in funnel tray. Heat set all the images using a heat gun. Color the flowers using Wilted Violet Distress Oxide. Cut all the flowers coordinating dies. Also, white heat emboss the leafy veins from Classic Rose Collection and color them using Peeled Paint Distress Oxide. Shape the flowers and leaves using needle tool Press the centers and prepare different size flowers. Add prills to the centers using an adhesive that dries clear.

Once all the elements are ready, assemble the card as shown.
