Other Supplies Used: Smooth white cardstock, Die Cutting machine, Score Board, Bone Folder, Glossy Accent, Double Sided Tape.
Instructions: The ready top fold card measures, 7″ X 7″. For making the card base you will need two pieces of cardstock measuring 7″ X 7″ and 7 1/2″ X 7″. Score the second piece on 1/2″ and crease well using a bone folder, making a hinge. Add glue on the hinge and secure the first piece on top.
Choose the pattern paper from the Elegant Mosaics designer paper collection and chop it to 6 1/2″ X 6 1/2″ using a paper trimmer. Layer the panel on white cardstock making a border of 1/16″ on all four sides. Cut 4 corners from Gold Luxe cardstock using Fanci-Fold Pocket & Accents Die and glue them behind each corner. popping a little out as an extra accent. Choose and cut coordinating pattern paper and create another layer. Glue the ready panel on the card front as shown.
Cut all the required die cuts from white and Luxe Gold cardstock using Simple Centerpiece and Elegant Hearts Centerpiece dies and layer them using double-sided tape.
Stamp the image from Floral Mosaics Cling Stamp Set, using Seafarer 4 times on smooth white cardstock, and paint each layer separately using Zig Clean Clear Brush Markers. Cut each layer using its coordinating die.
For Blue Asters, Stamp a couple of petals from Wild Aster Cling Stamp Set using French Ultramarine Archival Ink and cut them using its coordinating die. Color the petals using the same ink and shape them using golf groove tools. Create one large, 3 medium, and one small-sized Aster. Complete the flowers by adding the prills in the centers.
For foliage, Stamp the images from Leafy Accent stamp set with Olive green archival ink and paint them using Leaf green Archival ink. Cut the foliage using its coordinating die. Shape the leaves using a groove golf tool.
Stamp, cut, and color a few wisteria flowers using Bright Tangelo and Carnation Red Archival inks and shape them using a flower shaping kit. Add flower pollens using a glossy accent and use these flowers as fillers.
Once all the elements are ready, make a small floral display using all flowers, fillers, and foliage. Complete the card by adding a sentiment from Special Birthday Sentiments Cling Stamp Set.
