1- Begin by cutting the Crumb Cake Cardbase in half at 4 ¼”. Trim one half down to 4” x 5 ¼” add to the center of the cardbase. Save the other half for a future alternative.


2- On the Square Foil Label stamp the leaf image in Fresh Freesia Ink on the right side and bottom. They will overlap slightly in the bottom right corner.

3- Stamp your greeting in Garden Green ink in the are to the left.


4- Separate all three Lavender Flowers from the Large Multi Flower Die Cut buy trimming around the stems and sections that are connected.

5- Add the middle flower to the Square Label with dimensionals so it sits close to the greeting on the right.


6- From the Large Leaf Die Cut trim off a section. I used three branches that are on the left side. Follow the branch on the bottom left side. There is a leaf on the right top area that has two branches coming from it. Cut those branches off at the leaf. Then continue to separate the section where it is still connected to the whole. See video.


7- Add this over the Flowers on the card, I didn’t use any adhesive because the top flower will hold it down, but you can if you want.

8- Add the Medium Single Lavender Flower with dimensionals to the right over the Leaves. The stems should all be together.


9- Wrap the Purple Strip with 18” of twine and tie a knot on the right side about 1” from the edge. Lay the 10” piece across the knot and tie one last knot around the loose piece. Then bring two sections together in each hand and tie a bow like normal. See video.


10- Add the Strip across the bottom of the Square Label with dimensionals. Add everything to the cardbase with dimensionals.

All Done!

1- Begin by creating a watercolor wash over the 4” x 5 ¼” Fresh Freesia piece. I like to add clean water first and then mix the water with a little ink from the Gorgeous Grape Ink Spot. You can press the ink pad on a clear block and then mix the water there. Let dry.

2- Once dry, distress the edges of the same piece and add to the center with adhesive.


3- Trim the ends of the Long Rectangle Label into a fish tail banner shape. 


4- Stamp “YOU” from the “Just a little something for you” to the bottom right area. You can do this by only adding ink to “YOU”. See video for detail instructions. Add at the bottom of the tag with

5- Add the Love die cut over the label to the left of “YOU”. 


6- Add the leaf to the right of the tag with adhesive on the branches that will overlap the tag.

Add the label to the bottom of the Tag in the so about 1/4" hangs off the tag on the left side. It will not be centered on the tag.


7- Add it to the center of the cardbase with dimensionals. The tag will be slightly to the left.


8- Splatter the card with White Craft Ink & a Water Painter. On a clear block add a small drop of ink, mix with water and splatter across the card. Let dry or use a heat tool to speed up the process.

You can cover the "YOU" with a little washi tape if you are worried about it getting wet. It might bleed if it does.




9- Add a couple Loose Silver Sequins or other embellishment randomly on the card.

All Done!

Supplies

 


1- Layer a piece of Moody Mauve Cardstock (4 1/8” x 5 3/8”) behind a sheet of Plaid Gold Foil from the Most Adored DSP – Sale-a-bration item.


2- Stamp a light pattern with the flowers from Lifetime Of Love Stamp Set on Bubble Bath Cardstock (2” x 4”) with Bubble Bath ink. Add this about 1 ¼” from the bottom of the Gold Foil paper.


3- Wrap 6” of Moody Mauve Ribbon about ½” from the bottom of the Bubble Bath piece, securing the ends on the back. 

With 18” of White Baker’s Twine wrap around the Moody Mauve Ribbon, tie a single knot. 

Lay another piece of Twine (10”) across the knot and tie a knot around the second piece with the first. Adjust the second piece so the knot is in the center. 

With both pieces tie a double bow on the right side. See video if needed. Add everything to the cardbase with dimensionals.


4- Cut out the large Arch Die from Gold Foil Cardstock, make sure to add adhesive sheet to the back.

5- Create an embossed image of the Arch Die on Basic White Cardstock with your Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine by layering 

Platform 1, 
Clear platform 3, 
Silicone Craft Sheet, 
Cardstock & Die, 
Platform 3
When you run it through the machine it should not be tight, just enough pressure to press the die into the cardstock, not cut through. See video.


6- Place the die back over the embossed image. With a pencil trace along the outside edge. Fussy cut along this line. Erase any pencil marks.


7- With your choice of Stampin’ Blend Markers color in the flowers & leaves on the embossed piece. I used Old Olive for the leaves, Bubble Bath for the small flower, Moody Mauve for the large flower, and Dark Daffodil Delight for the inside area of each flower.


8- Adhere the Gold Die Cut over the embossed piece. The colored areas should fill the holes in the die giving a beautiful look.


9- Stamp your greeting on another piece of Basic White Cardstock and cut out with the same die. Add two dimensionals on the back in the center, then add a little liquid glue around the edge. Add this piece to the main piece pressing firmly around the edges. This creates a bubble look which I think looks cool on this die.


10- Add dimensionals to the back and place in the center of the card.

All Done!
