No Comments

This lovely neutrals rose card is really pretty.  It is made with the Cottage Rose and Honeybee Home stamp and die sets from Stampin’ Up and Softly Stippled designer series paper. 

To create this card, you just need a few things:

  • Pebbled Path card stock (Retired Stampin’ Up)
  • Sahara Sand card stock (Retired Stampin’ Up)
  • Basic Beige card stock (Stampin’ Up)
  • Softly Stippled designer series paper (Retired Stampin’ Up)
  • Cottage Rose stamp set and dies (Retired Stampin’ Up)
  • Honeybee Home stamp set and dies (Retired Stampin’ Up)
  • Pebbled Path ink (Retired Stampin’ Up)
  • Paper trimmer
  • Adhesive of choice
  • Pop dots

From a piece of Pebbled Path card stock cut a card base to 5 ½” x 8 ½” and fold in half to 4 ¼” x 5 ½”.  Cut another piece to 1 ½” x 5 ¼”.  From the Softly Stippled designer series paper find the Pebbled Path linen looking paper and cut a piece to 4” x 5 ¼” and adhere this to the front of your card base.  From Basic Beige cut a piece for the inside of your card to 4” x 5 ¼” and adhere to the inside of your card. 

Take your Cottage Rose stamp set and take the large rose stamp and the rose leaves stamp and stamp each on a piece of Basic Beige in Pebble Path Ink.  Use the dies to cut both of these images out.  The from the Honeybee Home dies find the floral sprig die and cut out three from some Sahara Sand card stock.  From the Honeybee Home find the bee facing left and stamp that on a piece of Basic Beige and use the die to cut that out as well. 

Adhere the Pebbled Path strip to the front of your card about 1” from the bottom.  Use the “best wishes” greeting stamp from the Cottage Rose stamp set and stamp in Pebbled Path ink to the right side of the strip.  Now adhere the three sprigs you cut to the back of your rose clumped to your liking and adhere the rose leaves piece as well.  Use pop dots to adhere your rose to your card front over the left side of the strip of Pebbled Path.  Use a pop dot to adhere the bee to the upper right side. 

For the inside of your card stamp the smaller rose from Cottage Rose with Pebbled Path ink in the lower left corner.  Use the “It’s going to be Fab” greeting and stamp in Pebbled Path in the upper center and stamp the full bee next to the greeting. 

What a pretty card to wish someone well wishes.

Cottage Rose Trellis Card

4 Comments

This is a cute see through card with a beautiful rose for a touch of elegance.  I used the Wild Wheat as the color tones to keep it a bit vintage to go with the trellis cut out.

To create this card, you just need a few things:

  • Very Vanilla card stock (Stampin’ Up)
  • Softly Stippled designer series paper (Retired Stampin’ Up)
  • Cottage Rose stamp set and dies (Retired Stampin’ Up)
  • Trellis die
  • Textured Notes dies
  • Jet Black Staz-On ink
  • Paper trimmer
  • Adhesive of choice
  • Pop dots

With the Very Vanilla card stock cut a card base to 4 ¼” x 11” and fold in half to 4 ¼” x 5 ½”.  With the Softly Stippled designer series paper, find the piece that is Wild Wheat colored with a look of painted texture.  Cut two pieces of that to 4” x 5 ¼”.  Adhere one piece to the front of your card and the other to the inside of your card. 

Take a spare piece of Very Vanilla and the trellis die and cut it out.  Then take the medium rectangle die from the Textured Notes dies and cut a frame that measures about 3 ¾” wide.  Use the same medium rectangle die and cut out a rectangle on the front of your card, which will leave about ¼” on each side for support.  Trim your Trellis piece to just under the size of the rectangle you cut out, adhere to the back and then adhere that over the hole on the front of your card, giving you the trellis window. 

Take another spare piece of Very Vanilla and your Jet Black StazOn ink and stamp the large rose and the leaf stem from the Cottage Rose stamp set.  Use the light and dark Old Olive Stampin’ Blends to color the leaves, the dark Cajin Craze Stampin’ Blends to color the dainty flowers, use the light Soft Suede Stampin’ Blends to color the stems and then the light and dark Wild Wheat to color the rose.  Use the dies from the Cottage Rose set to cut out the large rose and the leaf stem.  Adhere the stems to the lower right below your trellis cut out.  Use pop dots on the large rose and adhere to the lower left corner overlook

For the inside cut two rectangle pieces from some Very Vanilla.  On one of them stamp the “Happy Birthday” greeting from the Cottage Rose stamp set.  Adhere that one to the top of the inside of your card.  On the other one stamp one of the small roses from the Cottage Rose stamp set to the left side leaving room for signatures and a note.  Use your same Stampin’ Blends to color that rose.  Adhere this to the bottom of the inside of your card.

That gives you the Cottage Rose Trellis card for a lovely sentiment for anyone’s birthday.
