Delicate Dreams, Wild Bunch, Friendship Note Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I have a note card to share with you. I had seen this layout on several cards on Pinterest but no instructions. I saw that people asked if there were measurements but the one who posted it didn't reply. So off I went to grab some copier paper and make a mock card (for my stack of card sample/layouts) and I worked the pieces. Are you ready for this?  Please read on to see how it was made. 

The base of my card is a folded half-sheet of Basic White card stock. On top of that is a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the "Delicate Dreams" 12" x 12" package. I taped it in place.

Next I cut the left triangles. For the Hydrangea Hue layers I cut a 5" x 3-3/4" piece and cut it along the diagonal. One piece would need to be flipped over or you can cut another piece and then cut that one on the diagonal on the opposite side.  

The Basic White pieces were cut the same way. The piece measures the same 5" x 3-3/4" and after cutting along the diagonal, I cut off 3/8" on the left side. I had tried to just cut the piece 1/4" smaller and then cut on the diagonal but it didn't work. So I just cut the same size piece and after cutting on the diagonal I then cut the left side and the piece fit perfectly.  I did cut two and flipped the other one, cut the left end and then I laid both pieces in the "Lovely Stripes" embossing folder to texture them. I glued them to the Hydrangea Hue pieces and then that was taped to the front of the card about 1/4" from the top, left side and bottom.

For the center piece I cut a 3-5/8" x 2-3/4" piece of Hydrangea Hue card stock. Using a pencil, I lightly marked the center which was 1-3/8" and I cut from the corners to the center mark. 

I also cut the same size piece in Basic White card stock.  Once I was done cutting from the corners to the center I cut off 5/8" from the right edge.  

The words were stamped next. They are from the "Wild Bunch" set and were stamped using Basic Black ink.  I then taped the piece to the Hydrangea Hue layer and that was then taped to the right side of the card. I centered it by eyeing it. 

I fussy cut the flowers from another sheet of DSP in the same "Delicate Dreams" package.  I set the tan one in place using Dimensionals. Then the other two blue ones were glued in place. I only added glue to where the center area of the flowers.  I had fussy cut three little flowers but lost one so I cut another and then I found the other. It just showed up. How odd is that? I added a small Dimensional to the two blue little flowers and to one of the little tan flowers. I set one of the blue ones just under the large tan flower. I glued one little tan flower on the upper left side and the other little tan flower was set in place on the lower left side using a Dimensional. And the last little blue flower was set in place on the word panel using a Dimensional.  And the card was done.

This was actually a fun card to make once I figured out how to make the pieces.  I do like how it turned out though I think my next one will have busier DSP on the largest layer.  

Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's friendship/note card,
