Fancy Flora Thank You Card

The Fancy Flora Designer Series Paper has such gorgeous patterns. It looks like it has lots of texture; I just love it. This is one of my new favorites from the upcoming Mini Catalog.

I stamped the flower and leaves with the Two-Tone Flora Stamp Set and cut them out with the coordinating dies. These stamps are two-step where you can stamp the detail and filler to create a pretty flower. I used the same ink, stamping the detail and then stamping the background but stamping off first to get a lighter shade.

The Something Fancy Bundle has wonderful sentiments and some really great label dies.

Tips & Instructions

• Night Of Navy Card Base - 5 1/2 x 8 1/2, score at 4 1/4

• Fancy Flora Designer Series Paper - 5 1/4 x 4

• Wrap piece of Night Of Navy Bordered Ribbon around the Designer Series Paper Layer and adhere to back. Adhere layer to card base.

• On scrap of Basic White Cardstock stamp flower and greenery. I stamped the flower with Calypso Coral Ink, stamping the detailed image first, directly and then stamping the background filler image but stamping off on scrap paper first to get a lighter shade. Stamp leaves and branch with Evening Evergreen Ink. Cut with coordinating dies.

• Stamp sentiment with Night Of Navy Ink on Basic White Cardstock and cut with the hexagon shape label die.

• Adhere the flower and sentiment with Dimensionals.

• Adhere the greenery to card behind the flower.

• Add some Night Of Navy Adhesive-Backed Milky Dots.

On the inside layer stamp flower with Night Of Navy Ink and the leaves with Evening Evergreen Ink.
