Friends & Florals

Welcome back! I had a very busy weekend, and I am just getting back in the Studio.  So, let’s have a bit of fun as I try to catch up…

Working with CAS Colours & Sketches (#515) for the suggested Colors and CAS on Friday (#261) to incorporate Design Paper.  I am sharing this with Make My Monday (#205) to add an Aperture to the card.

Here is the result:

FRIENDS & FLORALS – JOLANDA JOHNSTONE – THE INQUE SPOT STUDIO – CC&S515 – COS261 – MMM205

Steps:

  • Card Base: (8½” x 5½” scored at 4¼”) Basic White cardstock.
  • Background Panel: (5” x 3½”) Basic White cardstock die-cut with the (4¾” x3⅜”) Rectangle die from the Deckled Rectangles Dies set.
  • Sentiment Panel: (3¼” x 2¼”) Misty Moonlight cardstock and (3” x 2”) Misty Moonlight Dashed patterned piece of paper from the 2023/2024 Neutrals Collection Designer Series Paper pack.
    • The patterned paper was adhered to the cardstock and the piece was die-cut with the Oval Friend die from the retired Lovely Words Thinlits Dies set.
  • Decorative Florals: Calypso Coral and Soft Sea Foam cardstock scraps.
    • Using the Stem and Flower dies from the Paper Florist Dies set, the Bouquet was die-cut and adhered together.
    • The Bow, from the Wanted To Say Dies set, was also die-cut and added to the Bouquet.

All elements were adhered to the card base.  Dimensionals were use to pop up both the background panel and the Bouquet.

A fresh an simple card to celebrate a friend for almost any occasion!
