Card #1
1- Take your card base 8.5” x 5.5” and score the 8.5” side at 1.25” and 4.25”, flip the paper and repeat in the same places this will break down the fibers on both sides of the score line. Fold the card in middle first like a regular card and then fold the 1.25” section back and use a bone folder to make the creases nice and sharp.
2- Trim the Crushed Curry card base that comes from the kit. Cut the solid yellow side into a 1.25” x 5.5” strip and then 3” x 5.5”. Repeat with the polka dot side.
3- Stamp the flower stamp multiple times in the center of the 3” Crushed Curry and one 1.5” Grapefruit Grove cardstock in the matching color.
4- Add the pieces of cardstock to the card. The 1.25” polka dot strip goes on the front of the flap. The 3” Crushed Curry goes on the left of the flap. The Grapefruit Grove goes on the inside of the card on the right of the flap.
5- Off the card, remove the gold swirl from the kit. Add it over the Shaded Spruce Strip.
6- Add 4 leaves from the kit, 2 in the top left and 2 in the bottom right.
7- Add 2 large flowers from the kit near the leaves.
8- Add this element to the middle of the card, adhere it only to the polka dot flap.
9- Add embossing buddy to the adhesive on the back of the sticker. This covers the sticky exposed areas so they don’t stick to the card where we don’t want it to.
10- Stamp a greeting on the ticket label from the kit in Terracotta Tile and add it to the center with dimensionals
11- Add three small Grapefruit Groove flowers around the greeting.
12- If you would like you can add some of the rhinestones from the kit.
All done!
Card #2
1- Take your card base 8.5” x 5.5” and score the 8.5” side at 1.25” and 4.25”, flip the paper and repeat in the same places this will break down the fibers on both sides of the score line. Fold the card in middle first like a regular card and then fold the 1.25” section back and use a bone folder to make the creases nice and sharp.
2- Add the other pieces of cardstock to the card. The 1.25” Crushed Curry goes on the front of the flap. The 3” polka dot goes on the left of the flap. The Grapefruit Grove goes on the inside of the card on the right of the flap.
3- On the Whisper White cardstock stamp the large flowers from the Beautiful Friendship stamp set in Crushed Curry. Stamp the first one in the top half with the bottom of the flowers around center. Then rotate your paper and stamp again.
4- Using both the 2 leaf and 3 leaf stamps, stamp some leaves around the flowers in Old Olive and Shaded Spruce ink.
5- Add the strip of Shaded Spruce to the center. It should come off the edge just a little.
6- Add 2 large and 5 small flower stickers from the kit.
7- Stamp a greeting on the ticket label from the kit in Terracotta Tile and add it to the center with dimensionals
8- Add this element to the middle of the card, only adhere it to the Crushed Curry flap.
