Hi Stampers!
I premiered a YouTube video this past Saturday of several cards I created as the third part of a series of classes I did using the Art Gallery Bundle and Suite. This is one of the cards from that class. I wanted to share the instructions, card cuts and supplies I used to make the card. It is super quick and easy to make, but the DSP is so pretty and gives it such a wow factor! I just LOVE the Fine Art Floral DSP and will be sad when it is retired in May.
To make the card, I started with a Poppy Parade card base and adhered Bumble Bee CS mats to the card front and inside. Next, I adhered three DSP strips evenly spaced over the card front panel with adhesive. On a scrap piece of Basic White CS, I stamped the largest flower background from the Art Gallery stamp set in Petal Pink ink and stamped the second layer of flower in Poppy Parade ink. I stamped the smallest flower piece (stamen) in BlackBerry Bliss ink in the center of the flower. I used the leaf and stem stamp with Old Olive ink below the flower. I stamped the Happy Birthday sentiment between the flower and leaves in Memento Black ink and cut this out with a Layering Circle die using my Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine (SCEM). I adhered this to the center of the card front with Stampin' Dimensionals. I made a bow out of the Bumble Bee ribbon and placed that at the bottom of the circle using a Mini Glue dot. I scattered a few Basic Rhinestone jewels around the card front using my Take Your Pick Tool.
For the card inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Happy Thoughts stamp set in Poppy Parade ink in the center of the largest Basic White CS. I adhered the 1/2" strip of DSP to the top of the panel and then placed that in the card inside with Stampin' Seal.
For the envelope front I stamped the large flower layers as before on the card front. I adhered the remaining DSP to the envelope flap using Tombow glue and trimmed the excess with Paper Snips. And just like that the card is complete! Super easy!!
