Crop nine squares of Garden Impressions 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper with the Big Shot Die-Cutting Machine and the second to the smallest (approximately 1 1/8) of the Layering Squares Framelits Dies.  Using the dies ensures uniformity of the square size.

Adhere squares with Snail Adhesive as shown to a 3 3/4 x 5 piece of Whisper White card stock.  Adhere Whisper White card stock with Snail Adhesive to a 3 7/8 x 4 7/8 piece of Mango Melody card stock.

Wrap Night of Navy Baker’s Twine around layers and tie in a bow.  Adhere layer to the card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Using the Big Shot Die-Cutting Machine crop Mango Melody card stock with the flower die from Springtime Impressions Thinlits Dies.  Add small Gold Faceted Gems to the flower centers and adhere to card with Glue Dots as shown.  TIP:  Adhering the flowers off-center adds movement.

Stamp sentiment from Abstract Impressions Photopolymer Stamp Set on Whisper White card stock with Night of Navy Ink.  I used the Stamparatus stamp positioning tool for crisp results.  Learn more about the features of the Stamparatus (a “must-have” tool for daily stamping) and watch video tutorials here.

Trim sentiment to 2 5/8 x 3/4 and adhere with Mini Stampin’ Dimensions leaving the middle (back) open to allow room to layer over the baker’s twine.

The perfect polish!  Adhere a coordinating pattern from Garden Impressions 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper with Multipurpose Liquid Glue to the flap of a Whisper White Medium Envelope.  Use Paper Snips to remove excess.

    • It would be an honor if you CASE’d it, Barb. You could use any coordinating DSP!

  1. Oh, Mary, I love this card! I surely will be case-ing it! Thank you, so very much for the simple, yet very appealing design!

    • Thank you so much, Jeneane. Think of all the pretty color and pattern combinations with Garden Impressions. It was hard for me to decide!

      • I can imagine it was difficult. The Garden Impressions DSP is probably one of the prettiest SU has ever had since I’ve been around.
