The last Thursday of each month I participate in an Instagram Hop for the Stampin' Up! group I belong to, Luv 2 Stamp. Everyone of us in the group is an Independent Stampin' Up! demonstrator. I love belonging to this group because we encourage, inspire and support each other in our stamping adventures. Today I am sharing with you and others a card I made using the classic colors of black and white with the Memorable Blooms bundle. There is no video for this card but I have included a picture of the card, measurements and step by step instructions. I was inspired by a sketch from Freshly Made Sketches.
Details/Measurements:
- Card base: Thick White cards stock 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" scored at 4 1/4" along long side.
- Layer #1: Basic Black card stock 4 1/8" x 5 3/8"
- Layer #2: Three (3) 5/8" x 6" strips of the black and white dash pattern from Mixed Media Floral DSP.
- Layer #3: Basic White cards stock 4"x4"
- Layer #4: Basic Black card stock 4"x4"
- Sentiment: Basic White 3" x 2"
- Embellishments: Adhesive backed Sparkle Gems
- Adhesive: Multi-purpose glue & Foam Adhesive sheets
How to Assemble:
- Fold and burnish your card base.
- For Layer #1 you will need to adhere the 3 strips to the 4 1/8" x 5 3/8" black panel. Glue them at an angle starting at the bottom right corner. Start the first piece about 1/2" from the corner and space them apart 1/2". Cut off the parts of the strips that hang over the sides of the black
- Die cut out of the white 4'x4" card stock the hexagon die from the Memorable Blooms bundle.
- Center the hexagon die on the black 4"x4" card stock and then in the center of hexagon attach the floral hexagon. Secure them to the card stock with a low tack tape of some kind (either washi tape or I use Post it flags). Die cut this piece out.
- Adhere with multi-purpose glue the black floral hexagon to the white hexagon. Set aside to dry.
- Center layer #1 to the front of the card base.
- Stamp the sentiment on the 3" x 2" white card stock and die cut out using the oval die from The Greetings of the Season die set.
- With the foam adhesive sheets attach the floral hexagon to the card front about 1" from the bottom and centered left to right.
- Glue the sentiment to the black layer in the upper left of the card front.
- Embellish with the Sparkle Gems. I used a black one to cover the hole left by the die.
