card details

• Cut, score, and fold an A2 top-folding card base from white card stock.
• Using another sheet of white card stock and the Thank You block stamps, and the Alloy ink, cover the entire panel with images.
• Once, the panel is dry, cut out 6 or 7 of the flowers from the Stacking Flowers die set. Use the Alloy ink and ink blend the edges of the flowers.
• Cut a piece of pink card stock to 3.75″ x 5″. Glue the flowers all over the panel. Some flowers will hang off the edges. Cut the pieces off and fill in any areas with these pieces.
• Put the entire panel into your swiss dot embossing folder and emboss according to your machine’s instructions.
• Stamp the Thank You sentiment (from Thank You stamp set) in black ink. Cover with clear embossing powder and heat. Die-cut with coordinating die. I ink blended some Distress Oxide Worn Lipstick ink around the edges of the sentiment.
• Stamp the “you are amazing sentiment and die-cut with the banner die. I used my black alcohol marker around the edges.
• The flower panel is glued to a piece of black card stock 1/8″ larger. This is glued to the card base.
• The Thank You and sentiment are both adhered to on top with foam tape.
• I added a few enamel dots from Kat Scrappiness.
