Steps:
- Card Base: (8½” x 5½” scored at 4¼”) Daffodil Delight cardstock.
- Background Panel: (4” x 5¼”) Basic White cardstock.
- Rectangle Panels: (4¼” x 5½”) Basic White cardstock smooched with colored inks picked up from the Stampin’ Glass Mat. Colors: Cherry Cobbler, Crushed Curry and Copper Clay.
- I created a card using those colors, some stencils and blending brushes for another project. When I was finished the residual inks on the stencils and the glass mat were sprayed with water and a piece of cardstock was pressed and dragged through the colors resulting in an interesting background with colors resembling Daffodil Delight, Flirty Flamingo and Pumpkin Pie.
- The three (3¼” x 1¼”) Rectangles were die-cut with one of the dies from the retired Rectangle Stitched Framelits Dies set.
- Focal Panel: (2½” x 4”) Basic White cardstock scrap.
- The Floral image from the Everyday Details stamp set was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Stampin’ Blends Markers. Colors: Light and Dark Flirty Flamingo, Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie and Soft Sea Foam.
- The Floral image was die-cut with the (1⅞” x 3½”) Elongated Hexagon die from the Countryside Corners Dies set.
- Sentiment Accent: Flirty Flamingo cardstock scrap
- Sentiment: Basic White cardstock scrap.
- The sentiment, Happy Birthday, from the Inked & Tiled stamp set was also stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink.
- Both pieces were cut with the (2⅜” x ¾”) Countryside Corners die but truncated to create a shorter label.
All elements were adhered to the card base to resemble the sketch. The Floral Panel and Sentiment Label were popped up with Dimensionals.
