Simply Sweet....

 


Today's card is simple...and sweet!  

I just received the Good Feelings stamp set found on page 33, and wanted to give it a go. 

Another product I just received was the Gold Celebrations 12 x 1 2 Specialty Paper.  It is actually a clear window sheet that has metallic patterns on it. How cool is that! 

How You Can Make It:

Supplies

Basic Black Card Stock
Basic White Card Stock
Fresh Freesia Card Stock
Gold Celebrations DSP
Metallic Sequins
Fresh Freesia Ink Pad
Gold Ribbon
Adhesives

Measurements

Card Base: Basic Black: 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 score 4 1/4
Card Liner: Basic White: 4 x 5 1/4
Front Mat: Fresh Freesia: 4 x 5 1/4
Front Mat: Basic White: 3 3/4 x 5
DSP Layer: Gold Celebrations: 3 3/4 x 5
Greeting Mat: Basic Black: 3 3/4 x 2 1/2
Greeting: Basic White: 3 1/2 x 2 1/4

Instructions:

  1. Fold the card base on the score line and burnish it flat with a bone folder. 
  2. Add a Basic White card liner to the inside of the card. 
  3. Add a Fresh Freesia mat layer to the front of the card. 
  4. Add the Basic White mat layer to the front of the card
  5. Add the Gold Celebrations DSP to the front of the card- see tips below before doing this
  6. Add a Basic Black greeting mat to the front of the card using Dimensionals
  7. Stamp the greeting in  Fresh Freesia ink and then add it to the front of the card. 
  8. Embellish with gold bow and gold metallic sequins. 
TIP: When attaching window sheets or this Gold Celebrations DSP you will be able to see the adhesives.  To get around this I added Tombow to the back side of the foil dots so that you could not see the adhesive.  You have to be extra careful to just put wee little dots on the back of the gold foil dots so it does not ooze out.
