Other Products Used: Smooth white cardstock, double-sided tapes, Glossy Accent, Score Board, Die Cutting Machine
Instructions: The ready top fold card measures, 8 1/2″ by 6 1/2″. To prepare the card base, cut a smooth white cardstock measuring 81/2″ by 6 1/2″ and a second piece measuring 9″ by 6 1/2″. On 9″ length, score at 1/2″. Choose the designer paper from the designer paper collection and cut the panel 1/8″ smaller than the card front. Glue it on the card front. Now use the oval from the Oval Filigree Frame Die set and cut the window as shown. Now crease the hinge well and glue it to the rest half to create the window card front.
Choose another coordinating paper and cut the filigree fancy frame using pattern paper, white cardstock, and white cardstock. Glue all of them together keeping the colored one on top, white in the middle, and the gold one on the bottom, creating a shadow. This surely will add extra dimensions. Glue the frame on the outer layer of the window.
Stamp all the required images with black archival ink on smooth white cardstock and cut these with their coordinating dies. Paint all the required images using Zig Clean Clear brush markers. Shape the basket a little and also shape the floral bouquet. Layer it on the inside of the window panel as shown.
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 3 medium-sized Asters. Complete the flowers by adding the prills in the centers.
Stamp 2 sets of leaves using Leafy Accent stamp and Olive Green Archival ink and cut them using its coordinating die. Color the leaves using the same inks and shape them using a deluxe flower shaping kit.
Once all the elements are ready, make a small floral display using all flowers, fillers, and foliage. Complete the card by adding a stamped sentiment from Special Birthday Sentiments Cling Stamp Set.
