Welcome to the Cardz 4 Galz biweekly challenge #180. Our host this time, Claudia, chose using 3 of anything for the theme. When you are finished here, I hope you will visit the challenge site to see what the rest of the design team created. I’m looking forward to seeing our creations in our gallery.
Here’s my card:
I really went with the theme of using 3 of anything for this card. There are three DSP (designer series paper) patterns, all from the soon-to-be retiring FREE Sale-a-Bration Rings of Love DSP set. The trees DSP rectangle contains three threes, two of which are partially covered by the birds DSP pattern. In addition, there are three rectangles, three sentiments (two on the inside) and three elements from the embellishments section of the annual catalog.
Measurements:
- The Night of Navy base measures 5-1/2 by 8-1/2 inches, scored at 4-1/4 inches.
- The DSP splatter pattern measures 4-1/8 by 5-3/8 inches.
- Next, I trimmed a piece of the trees DSP pattern to 5-1/8 by 2-7/8 inches.
- Then, I trimmed a piece of the birds DSP to 2-1/2 by 4-3/8 inches and added dimensionals underneath it.
- I also trimmed a piece of the birds DSP to 6 inches by 2-1/2 inches for the envelope flap.
- The white cardstock for the inside measures 4 inches by 5-1.4 inches.
- Finally, I punched a 1 inch circle from the trees DSP for the envelope seal.
What I Did:
- First, I used multipurpose liquid glue to adhere the splatter and trees DSP to the front of the card.
- Then, I stamped the front sentiment, which comes from the Hello Ladybug stamp set, in Soft suede on a piece of scrap white cardstock. I cropped it using a Tailor Made Tags die and trimmed it down.
- Next, I wrapped a piece of Mint Macaron ribbon around the birds DSP and pushed it through the hole in the tag. After tying it in a knot, I added a piece of braided linen thread to it and tied it in another note.
- I popped the tag up on dimensionals and adhered it to the DSP. Then, I added the DSP to the front of the card.
- The last step for the front was to add a Crushed Curry dot to the tag.
- I stamped both sentiments for the inside using Soft Suede ink and two sentiments from the Peaceful Moments stamp set. I adhered it to the inside of the card using multipurpose liquid glue.
- With that, I’d finished this coordinated card, envelope, and envelope seal set.
Thank you for stopping by my blog today!
Have a Peachy Day!
