With a piece of Crisp Cantaloupe card stock cut it to 5 ½” x 8 ½” and score at 1 3/8” and 4 ¼”. Fold your card base in half and then fold the small score piece to the front. Take some white card stock cut three pieces to 2 ¾” x 5 3/8” and then two pieces to 1 ¼” x 5 3/8”. From the Bloom Boutique designer series paper pack find the Crisp Cantaloupe speckled paper and also the soft pink with dainty Crisp Cantaloupe and gold flowers. From the speckled paper cut two pieces to 2 5/8” x 5 ¼”. Then from the floral paper cut two pieces to 1 1/8” x 5 ¼”.
Adhere your floral strips to the white strips and the two speckled pieces to two of the three white pieces. Take one of the speckled pieces and adhere to the front panel behind the small, folded strip. Then adhere one of the floral strips to the front small strip. Then open the card and adhere the second speckled piece to the second panel, the white piece to the left on the third panel and then the floral strip to the right of the white piece.
From the Scalloped Blooms dies find the unstitched die measuring about 3 ¼” and then the next size down stitched die. From Crisp Cantaloupe card stock cut out the larger one and then the smaller one from some white card stock. With Crisp Cantaloupe ink stamp the “happy birthday” greeting from the Scalloped Blooms stamps toward the upper section of the white piece. Adhere to the Crisp Cantaloupe scalloped circle.
Take the daisy looking flower stamps, there will be two, and with your Crisp Cantaloupe ink you are going stamp three of them, starting with the fill in stamp which I stamped off before I stamped so that it wasn’t full color, and then stamp the outline in full ink over each. Then take the flower bud stamp and stamp two by stamping off the background and then stamping over in the full outline. Now with your Peaceful Pine ink and the three leaf stamps, stamp two by stamping off the background and then stamping in full for the outline. I left one of the three leaves whole and the other I cut into three individual leaves.
Take two of the large flowers and adhere at the bottom of your scalloped circles and then one of the buds in the upper left along with the full three leaves and then two of the other leaves on the right side to your liking. Then take the other flower and adhere to the bottom of the inside white panel with the other bud sticking out from the left and the third leaf from the right. Use Crisp Cantaloupe ink and a greeting of your choice (I used an old Stampin’ Up wood block greeting that I don’t know the name of) to stamp on the inside.
A cheery bright birthday card to anyone would love to receive.
