Project Recipe
Cut Thick Whisper White Cardstock to 21cm x 14.8cm and score on long side at 10.5cm to create a standard A6 card blank.
If working in inches, you should cut the A4 in half along the long edge, just shy of 5-7/8" and then score on the long edge at 4-1/8.
Cut the following...
(use inches OR cm throughout - don't interchange)
Whisper White - 3-1/2" x 5-1/8" or 8.9cm x 13cm
DSP - 3" x 4-7/8" or 7.5cm x 12.4cm
now cut this into 3 equal strips, so the 3", you cut at 1" twice, to make 3.
OR, the 7.5cm, you cut at 2.5cm, twice to make 3. - try and lay them to oneside with the pattern matching.
Glue each of these strips onto the Whisper White rectangle ...TIP...
Start with the LEFT HAND strip,
glue this on, with a 1/8" / 3mm EQUAL border, top, left and bottom.
Now do the RIGHT HAND strip, same border on top, bottom and right side.
Finally, glue the centre strip - which should lay between with equal borders too.
Punch 2 'Label Me Lovely' shapes, 1 in Whisper White and 1 in Old Olive. Stamp the desired sentiment onto the Whisper White label - set aside to dry.
Cut the Old Olive Label in half horizontally - from straight edge to straight edge.
Punch 1 Old Olive 'Leaf'
Die Cut the large flower from Terracotta Tile and the small flower from Rococo Rose cardstock.
Ribbon - 2 options...
Wrap old Olive ribbon around the 'DSP strip' panel and tie a bow on the front in the centre of the left strip.
OR...
Wrap a flat piece of ribbon over the front of the panel and secure with tape on the back. Then add a bow on top of the ribbon strip, in the centre of the left DSP strip, with a glue dot.
Adhere this panel to the card front with dimensionals.
Glue the 2 halves of the Old Olive punched label, to the back of the sentiment label, so they protrude, top and bottom (they will leave a gap across the centre back of the Whisper White label)
Apply dimensionals to this 'layered' sentiment and adhere to card over the ribbon band.
Using Tombow or glue dots, layer up thesmall flower onto the large flower, then onto the leaf punch - you may wish to snip off the 'stem' of the leaf.
Glue this layered flower onto the bottom of the sentiment label.
Finally, add a MEDIUM gilded gem to the centre of the flower.
