Say It with Flowers for MMM#278 & AHSC #682
Welcome to the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #682! It’s Team B’s turn, and we are happy to share our projects using the sketch. I combined the AHSC with the newest Make My Monday bi-weekly challenge #278. Our host for this edition, Tee, chose Say It with Flowers for the theme. When you finish here, please visit both challenge sites to see what the rest of the very talented design team members created. Then, don’t forget to upload your creations to both galleries. We look forward to seeing your creations there!
Here’s my card:
Here’s the sketch for the AHSC:
In addition to the AHSC and MMM challenges, I will also be entering this card in the Cut It Up! Challenge #356 and the Love Those Pretty Papers Challenge Blog.
Measurements:
- The Berry Burst base measures 8-1/2 by 5-1/2 inches, scored at 4-1/4 inches to create a tent card
- After embossing a piece of white cardstock with the Fern & Flora 3D embossing folder, I trimmed it to 5-3/8 by 4-1/8 inches
- The strip of DSP (designer series paper) on the bottom measures 3/4 by 5-3/8 inches
- The DSP for the envelope flap measures 6″ by 2-1/2 inches
- Both of these pieces of DSP come from the Fern & Flora 12 x 12 inch DSP
- Next, I punched a 1-inch circle from the Velvet Meadow DSP and ran it through my XYRON create-a-sticker for the envelope seal
- I trimmed a piece of the Velvet Meadow DSP to 5-3/8 by 4 inches
- I used a protractor (pictured below) to trace the semi-circle, then fussy cut it
- I have one I’ve used for many years, but here’s the Amazon information
- Since the Velvet Meadow Suite is on my next order, I used the retired Cheerful Daisy stamp and die set for the trios of flowers
- I had a piece of embossed Peaceful Pine cardstock from this card, so I cropped two of the branch-y dies from it
- The white cardstock for the inside of the card measures 4 by 5-1/4 inches
- I didn’t stamp anything on the inside yet until I decide who will be getting this card and why
- I used a scrap of white cardstock for the sentiment
What I Did:
- Unless otherwise specified, I used multipurpose liquid glue to adhere pieces together
- I adhered the strip of Berry Burst DSP to the bottom of the Velvet Meadow DSP
- After adhering the DSP to the embossed white cardstock, I adhered it to the front of the base of the card
- I adhered the two Peaceful Pine cropped pieces to the top of the arched DSP
- After dry-fitting the placement of the trios of flowers, I adhered the left, right, and middle trio to the top of the arch
- I added dimensionals to two of the trios and adhered them in the alternating positions
- I stamped the sentiment in Berry Burst and the frame in Peaceful Pine using a stamp from the Fern & Flora stamp set
- Then, I cropped the frame using the Fern & Flora die
- I cut a piece of Peaceful Pine ribbon and added it to the back of the sentiment using mini glue dots
- Next, I added dimensionals to the back of the sentiment and adhered it to the front of the card
With that, I’d finished this coordinated card, envelope, and envelope seal set.
Thank you for stopping by today!
Have a Peachy Day!
