New Post, Best Wishes Card

Best Wishes Card

I was playing around again with the Butterflies and Flowers Layering Decorative Masks and designed this card. It is very similar to this card I made in January.

I used the Butterflies And Flowers Layering Decorative Masks from Stampin' Up! 

Details: 

Create textured and coloured backgrounds with Butterflies & Flowers Layering Decorative Masks. These stencils are an easy way to blend colours on your cards and other paper crafting projects. You can use the background masks on their own. But your images will really pop when you layer the detailed masks over the backgrounds to get even more depth and dimension. Use with Classic Stampin' Ink and colouring tools such as Blending Brushes and Sponge Daubers for beautiful colour. You can also use them with Embossing Paste and Palette Knives for textured designs.

Directions:

I started with a card base of Bermuda Bay Card Stock cut to 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" and scored at 4 1/4".

Cut a piece of Very Vanilla C/S to 4" x 5 1/4".

Using the floral mask and Blending Brushes, I added Coastal Cabana Ink to the Very Vanilla C/S panel. *Tip: use some removable tape to hold the mask and card stock in place. Gently lift the mask without shifting it to check on your progress. Once I was happy with how much colour was down on the card stock, I moved the mask to the detailed portion of the same floral image and added the Bermuda Bay Ink.  

Emboss this panel using the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing. Folder.

Cut a piece of the White Frayed Ribbon and attach it using tape on the back side of the panel. Attach this panel to the card base using Dimensionals. 

Tie a Gold Cord bow to the Frayed Ribbon.

Stamp a sentiment using Memento Black Ink onto a piece of Very Vanilla C/S. Add a slightly larger piece of Coastal Cabana C/S behind the sentiment and attach it to the card front using Dimensionals. I attached mine at an angle and I really like how it looks. The sentiments in the Happiness Abounds Stamp Set are gorgeous! 

I love the font and the selection!

Splatter some Wink Of Stella over the flowers.

For the inside I added a 4" x 5 1/4" piece of Very Vanilla C/S. I die cut the bottom using a Blossoming Happiness Border Die. Then I stamped a greeting in Coastal Cabana Ink.

A simple but elegant card.
