I made this card using the revised sketch #66 so that I could create using products from the Floral Impressions Suite. I am pretty sure this suite is going to be very popular. I am loving this suite.
I used the Wildflower Birthday DSP, Impressions Abloom dies, the Strawberry Slush Gems and white twine.
Stampin Up Supplies and Directions
- Top folding portrait cardbase. Cut from a half sheet of Basic White Cardstock. With the 8-1/2″ side facing upward in your trimmer cut at 4-1/4″. Then rotate to 11″ side and score at 5-1/2″.
- Crisp the fold with your bone folder https://www.stampinup.com/products/bone-folder?demoid=2242482
- Cut a piece of Pretty in Pink cardstock that measures 5-1/4″ x 4″. Adhere this layer to the front of the card base leaving a margin on all four sides. To adhere this I used my Stamp & Seal however, you can use your adhesive of choice. https://www.stampinup.com/products/pretty-in-pink-8-1-2-x-11-cardstock?demoid=2242482 https://www.stampinup.com/products/stampin-seal?demoid=2242482
