I loved making this card so much! The beautiful Designer Series Paper True Love (#154281) has been my go to for projects lately!
I wanted to make something quickly for someone super special to me to let them know I'm thinking about them and that they are amazing of course.
I got out my new pack of Blender Brushes (#153611) and grabbed some blue and green ink pads. (I used Pretty Peacock (retiring), Seaside Spray (retiring) and Coastal Cabana (#147097). I then applied ink in a kind of ombre manner onto a section of the large flowers of the True Love set. (I had cut a 3-3/4" square piece and a 1" x 3-3/4" piece of the DSP.) I then used a Basic Black piece of cardstock (#121045) measuring 11" x 4-1/4", scored at 5-1/2" and at 4-1/4".
After blending with inks, I applied a Wink of Stella (#141897) to a big flower on the big square and to one on the smaller strip! So sparkly!
I then used a sentiment from the new stamp set coming out May 4 called Color & Contour (#154994). I love this set! I cut a scrap piece of Basic White Cardstock (#159276) with my scissors to resemble a banner. I then applied some leftover ink from my blending brushes to the sentiment piece as well as a 3-3/4" square Basic White piece for the inside of the card, and to the envelope. I then attached the inner white square with Stampin' Seal.
I used my Stampin' Seal (#149699) to adhere the DSP to the card stock. I tied Snowflake Splendor ribbon which is currently on clearance (#153548) to the small scored section as shown and then I glued down the small inch section on the inside of the card. The card will open sideways. I used Mini Stampin' Dimensionals (#144108) to attach the sentiment.
I attached 3 Matte Black Dots as shown (#154284). That's it! I'm in love with this card. I love the fun little glued down 1 inch part to give it a different look! I'll probably make a bunch more more like this with different color patterns. I hope you like it!
See you next time!
