The base of my card is a folded half-sheet of Basic White card stock (after thought here, I think Early Espresso would have looked better).
A 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Crushed Curry was cut for the largest layer.
Then I cut a 3-1/2" x 4-3/4" piece of Cajun Craze for the next layer.
On top of the Cajun Craze layer I added some pretty Designer Series Paper (DSP). On the upper part I cut the DSP at 2-1/2" x 1" and I cut three of them. I kept them in the order of the way they were cut so the design would carry through. I chose this color because out of all the pretty papers in the pack I thought this one was the most difficult one to work with. But after using this layout, it didn't seem as difficult anymore. I taped the three pieces on the upper part of the layer.
A 2" x 3-1/4" piece of DSP from the same package, it was actually the backside of the upper piece. I taped that piece to the lower part of the card.
The words are from the "Poetic Petals" bundle and were stamped using Basic Black ink. I used the die from the "Stylish Shapes" set but after cutting them out I realized there's a die that is just about the same size in the "Stylish Shapes" set. I big DUH there on my part. LOL. When I die cut the words, I moved the die so the words would be as close as I could to the right.
The flower stem from the "Radiant Sunflowers" was cut using Garden Green card stock. The flower was cut using another die from the set on Cajun Craze card stock and the center was cut using another die and Early Espresso card stock. I glued the center to the flower.
I set the word piece in place using Dimensionals. I glued the flower stem to the left side of the word piece. I snipped the upper part of the stem and the flower was added using Dimensionals. And the card was done. It's all ready to go out in the mail tomorrow.
Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's get well card,
Wanda
