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.
Using the 3rd and 4th dies in the "Arched Dies" set I cut the larger one out of Lost Lagoon and the other using Basic White card stock. I texture the Basic White piece using the "Stone and Vine" embossing folder. I glued it to the Lost Lagoon piece and then I taped that to the front of the card base about 1/2" up from the bottom and equally on each side. I set it under my beading mat to dry and to keep it flat as it dried.
Using the "Greenery Lane" washi tape, I rolled it out onto some Basic White card stock and then I cut out the pieces that I wanted to use. The tape has color sections and I chose some greens from each section.
I stamped the flowers next. They are from the "Greenery Lane" bundle and were stamped using Bubble Bath ink on a scrap piece of Basic White card stock. I cut them out with the matching dies.
The words are from the "Lovely Arrangements" bundle and were stamped using Lost Lagoon ink on a scrap piece of Basic White card stock. I cut them out using a die in that same bundle. I added Dimensionals to the back and set it aside.
I removed the card base from under my mat and began adding the greenery. I glued them in place on the right side of the arch.
The flowers were glued in place and I added a little pearl to the center of each one.
I removed the backing on the Dimensionals and set the word piece in place on the lower part of the card about 7/8" up from the bottom edge of the card and the card was done.
I think this would make a great get well, Mother's Day, thinking of you, and even a sympathy card. It has a versatile look to it. It was fun to make and I really enjoy playing with that washi tape.
Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's birthday card,
Wanda
