Peaceful Garden, Friendly Foliage, Get Well Card, Stampin' Up!

 

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I thought I'd take a break from using my Christmas sets and Designer Series Paper (DPS) and make a get well card. My stash is pretty low. I found this card on Pinterest. You can see the original by clicking here.  I clicked through from the original but there were no instructions, so I winged it. Please read on to see how I made this card. 

The base of my card is a folded half-sheet of Basic White card stock. It opens on the right and the fold is on the left.

I cut a 4-1/8" x 5-3/8" piece of Basic White card stock for the large layer. I textured it using the "Beautiful Pattern" embossing folder. Strong tape was used to set it in place on top of the card base.

Next, using Lost Lagoon ink on a 2-1/2" x 4" piece of Basic White card stock, I stamped the image from the "Friendly Foliage" bundle. Then using the die in that bundle I cut the center of the image out. 

A 2-1/4" x 3-1/2" piece of DSP from the "Peaceful Garden" 12" x 12" package was used for the background image. I guess I did use some Christmas paper here but it doesn't look like it or have the feel of Christmas.  Anyway, I taped that to a 2-3/4" x 4-1/4" piece of Basic White card stock. I centered it as much as I could by eyeing it. It's not important though because the stamped greens image will be covering it.

Dimensionals were added to the stamped greens image and it was set on top of the layer with the DSP on it.  I centered it on the layer as much as I could by eyeing it. I often turn my pieces over to get a better view of where they are going to end up and then I set them in place. 

A 3-1/8" x 4-5/8" piece of Basic White card stock was cut for the next layer. I taped the greens layers on top of that. Dimensionals were added to the back of it and it was set in place on the front of the card. Again, I centered it as much as I could by eyeing it. Plus I had the dots from the embossed piece as a guide.

I added two "Brushed Brass Butterflies to the front and the card was done.

This was a very fun card to make. I LOVE all of the layers.

Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's get well card,
Wanda
