Hello, for today’s blog I am joining the Global Design Project #GDP338. This week it is a sketch challenge for a slimline card. I do not usually do slimline cards but have to say I really enjoyed creating this.
Floral Slimline Birthday Card
Create a slimline/DL card base, measuring 21cm x 10.5cm, using Basic White Thick cardstock. Cut a layer of Just Jade cardstock, measuring 20.5cm x 10cm, and a layer of Heart & Home DSP, measuring 20cm x 9.5cm. Adhere a Basic Grey Doily, from the Heart & Home Doilies to your DSP layer and adhere this onto your Just Jade layer.
Using the Honeybee Blooms Dies, die cut two foliage sprigs from Cinnamon Cider and Just Jade cardstock. From Fresh Freesia cardstock, die cut four small flowers, using the Flowers of Home Dies and adhere these to the end of your Just Jade sprig.
Stamp and die cut the smaller bouquet image from the Blessings of Home stamp set onto Basic White cardstock, using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. Colour your image using Fresh Freesia, Pale Papaya, Misty Moonlight, Just Jade, and Cinnamon Cider Stampin’ Blends. Adhere to your doily using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Place your Cinnamon Cider sprig behind your bouquet and adhere with Mini Glue Dots. Using Multipurpose Liquid Glue, adhere your Just Jade sprig on top of your bouquet.
Wrap Misty Moonlight/Silver Baker’s Twine, from the Flowers for Every Season Ribbon Combo Pack, twice around your card front and tie with a bow. Adhere your card front to your card base. Stamp your sentiment using Misty Moonlight ink, onto Basic white cardstock, and trim into three pieces. Add to your card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Finish your card by adding several Fresh Freesia 2021-2023 In-colour Jewels.
I hope you have found some inspiration in my project.
