(New Post) To Tear Or Not To Tear?

To Tear Or Not To Tear?

Sometimes a card just needs to have some tearing on it. I like how the tearing on todays card looks and it's an easy way to add some interest as well. The Basic White Card Stock always "pops" when it's paired with Night Of Navy Card Stock!

I wasn't a huge fan of the Lemon Lolly when I first saw it, but now I love it!! Especially with the Night Of Navy! It's very fresh and cheerful.

Directions for todays card:

Card Front:

Cut a piece of Night Of Navy Card Stock to 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" and score at 4 1/4".

Cut a piece of Basic White C/S to 4" x 5 1/4" and tear approximately 1/2" off of the bottom edge. 

Cut a piece of the Bright And Beautiful Designer Series Paper to 3" x 5".

Wrap some Lemon Lolly Sheer Ribbon around the bottom edge of the DSP. Attach the ribbon to the back of the DSP. I use scotch tape for this. Cut a shorter piece of the Lemon Lolly Sheer Ribbon and tie it to the front of this layer through the other ribbon. I call it a "faux Bow". Attach this to the Basic White C/S layer. Then attach it to the card base using Dimensionals. 


Punch out a piece of Vellum CS using the Decorative Circle Punch. Attach it to the card base. I use a very small amount of Stampin' Seal. 

Die cut a Night Of Navy C/S flower using the Darling Details Dies. Attach it to the Vellum using Multi-Purpose Liquid Glue.

Stamp the sentiment using Night Of Navy Ink onto Basic White C/S. The size depends on which sentiment you use. I used a sentiment from the Layering Leaves Stamp Set. This set has lots of beautiful sentiments! Punch a small hole in the upper left corner of the sentiment strip and add some White Bakers Twine. Attach the sentiment using Dimensionals.


Finish the card front off by adding some Loose Silver Sequins. 


Card Inside:


Cut a piece of Basic White C/S to 5 1/4" x 4". 

Cut a piece of the same DSP as you used for the card front to 3/4" x 5 1/4" and attach it to the very bottom of the Basic White layer. 

Cut a 3/4" x 5 1/4" piece of Basic White C/S and die cut this strip using the decorative edge die from the Darling Details Dies. Attach this strip over top of the DSP using Multi-Purpose Liquid Glue.

Tie some White Bakers Twine around the layer, right up to the where the decorative edge is glued. This hides the seam.

Attach this layer to the inside of the card.

I also stamped my envelope using a leaf image from the Layering Leaves Stamp Set and Night Of Navy Ink.



I hope you have enjoyed todays card as much as I enjoyed making it!
