Stampin with Shirley G

My card I am sharing today is a CAS of the one Carol Buckalew created at our Team Meeting in March.  She created a beautiful card so that all us members that chose to make a card like hers would have a beauty also.

I am joining Creative Creases Challenge for this card.

• Start with a  4-1/4″ x 11″  piece of Mossy Meadow cardstock as the card base. 
• As this is a fun fold, you will need to make a few score lines for folding. 
• Score at 2-1/4″, 3-5/8″, 7-3/8″ and 8-3/4″. 
• Fold the cardstock at the score line, the first fold is valley fold, then mountain fold, then mountain fold again and finally the last one is a valley fold.  This will give you the pop-out for the center of the card.

• Cut 4 pieces of Daffodil Delight cardstock for the mats.  The measurements are at the end of the post. 
• Cut 3 pieces of  Flowering Zinnias Designer Series Paper.
• Adhere the Flowering Zinnias Designer Series Paper to the Daffodil Delight mats using Multipurpose Liquid Glue
• Die cut a piece of Basic White cardstock using a die from Perennial Postage Dies.
• Stamp a greeting from Stampin’ Up! Simply Zinnias stamp set in Memento Black ink.
• Die cut a piece of Berry Burst cardstock using a larger die from Perennial Postage Dies.  This is the mat for the greeting.
• Adhere the two pieces together using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
• Adhere all the matted pieces to the card front. See photo above.
• Stamp 3 Zinnias & leaves using a flower and leaf image from Stampin’ Up! Simply Zinnia stamp set.
• Stamp one in Gorgeous Grape ink and color with Highland Heather Stampin’ Blends, Stamp one in Melon Mambo ink and color using Melon Mambo Stampin’ Blends, and stamp the last one in Crushed Curry ink and color using Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends.
• Pop the Zinnias  and leaves over the greeting using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
• Pop Adhesive Backed Shiny Sequins around the card front.
• Die cut a piece of Basic White  using a die from Perennial Postage Dies & cut a piece of  Daffodil Delight cardstock.
• Stamp a sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Beach Day stamp set on the Basic White piece using Memento Black ink.
• Stamp a flower from the same stamp set as the one on the card front in the corner of the Basic White piece.
• Adhere the two pieces together using Multipurpose Liquid Glue, then adhere to the back of the card.
• Adhere a piece of Flowering Zinnias Designer Series Paper to a Basic White envelope flap using Multipurpose Glue.

1. Start with a Basic White cardstock card base.

5. The smaller of the die cuts is popped back in the negative space of the frame using Stampin’ Dimensionals after embossing.

12. Pop the greeting over the Linen Bow positioning the Stampin’ Dimensionals on each side of the bow.
13. Pop Adhesive Backed Shiny Sequins around the card front. 
14. Die cut a piece of Basic White cardstock using the same dies as used on the card front.
15. Stamp the other half of  message on the stamp used for the greeting on the card front on this die cut panel.
