Crane of Fortune Matted Birthday

{ tams # 70530 }

Print Recipe

Adhere all DSP papers to the Basic White Mattes that coordinate with them.

Adhere the 2 x 5 DSP and Matte to the card front about 1/4" from top edge and 3/8" from right edge.

Adhere 1 1/2 x 4 1/2 DSP Matted piece to the card front about 1/8" from left edge and 1/2" from top edge slightly overlapping the other matted piece.

On the 2 3/4 x 3 Basic White piece stamp the Crane using Smokey Slate ink (Note: the whole crane will not fit). Then cut out using the Good Fortune Dies.

Adhere Crane to the last matted piece. Wrap ribbon around the left side about 1/4" from bottom edge. Then add to the card front about 1/8" from right edge and 1 1/8" from top edge. This piece should overlap the matted piece on the left just a bit.
Trim ribbon.

Using Soft Succulent Ink stamp the sentiment onto the center of the 2 1/2 x 2 1/2 Basic White piece then using the Stylish Shapes Dies cut out using one of the circle dies. Then adhere it to the card front over the ribbon and the last matted DSP piece you just placed centering over the Crane's feet! (Note: I used liquid glue on the top and Mini Stampin Dimensionals on the bottom to keep it level)

Using Calypso Coral ink stamp the Dragonflies onto the 1 1/4 x 3 Basic White piece then cut out using the Good Fortune Dies. (Note: You will only be using three of the dragonflies). Place two of them onto the circle sentiment and the other on the left matted piece as shown in the picture.

Add embellishments as desired.

For the inside of the card:
Using the Biggest Wish stamp set stamp the sentiment in Soft Succulent ink.
In the bottom right hand corner using the Crane of Fortune stamp set and the Dragonflies, stamp in Calypso Coral ink.
Adhere to the inside of the card.
