Awash in Beauty Thank You Card

 

Hello, and thanks for visiting my blog! And thank you VERY much for voting for my card--it tied for seventh place in Kylie Bertucci's December International Blog Highlights competition!! I am so happy to be invited to participate in the Top Ten Winners' Hop again! (I am posting my Top Ten card at the bottom of this blog entry, in case you didn't see it.)

Awash in Beauty Thank You Card

I hadn't used my Awash in Beauty Designer Series Paper (DSP) in a while, and decided to use it for a team meeting Mystery Challenge. This paper is gorgeous!

I hadn't made this type of fun-fold card before. It was a quick card to make, and the variety of papers in the pack made it really easy. Of course, being Stampin' Up! products, everything was coordinated!

Here is the card I submitted for this month's contest. Thanks again for voting it into first place! To see more photos and directions for the card below, click here.

If you live in Canada 🇨🇦 and don't presently have a Stampin' Up! demonstrator, I'd love to help you out! Shopping links are below.

Full Directions for My Awash in Beauty Thank You Card:

1. Cut the following layers:
• Polished Pink cardstock: 4-1/4" x 5-1/2"
• Basic White cardstock: 2-3/4" x 10-3/4" (scored at 5-3/8"); 2" x 2"--stamp sentiment (from Something Fancy stamp set) with Memento ink, die cut with Something Fancy label die, cut again to shorten
• Awash in Beauty DSP: 7/8" x 5-3/8" (pink plaid); 2-5/8" x 5-3/8" (green), floral motif (fussy cut this)
• Vellum Cardstock: 3-1/4" x 3-1/4" (die cut with largest Stylish Circles die)
2. Wrap 3-1/2" of Polished Pink 3/8" Open Weave Ribbon around green DSP. Attach to back with tape.
3. Centre DSP on front of folded Basic White cardstock.
4. Adhere pink DSP strip 1/16" from right edge of Polished Pink card base, leaving an even border at top, bottom, and right edge.
5. Adhere folded white cardstock to card base so that it slightly overlaps the pink plaid strip.
6. Adhere floral motif to vellum circle; use Dimensionals (behind flowers) to attach to card front, being careful to adhere only to the green DSP.
7. Add label with Dimensionals.
8. Add three Polished Pink Glossy Dots to card front.
