Today’s card was totally inspired by the March/April 2010 Papercrafts magazine go-to sketch #1 which was created by Teri Anderson (LOVE her stuff!). 

You can download a pdf handout on how this card was made. The pdf include supply list, dimensions and written directions. You can watch a video of how this card was made below:

Directions:

  1. Take a 4 ¼” x 11” piece of Barely Banana CS and fold it in half with your bone folder to create a 4 ¼” x 5 ½” card.
  2. Die cut the larger scalloped circle from the Scallop Circle #2 die in Chocolate Chip CS using your Big Shot (the diameter of the circle is about 3 ½”).
  3. Pierce a hole in the center of each scallop using a paper-piercing tool and foam mat.
    Cut a 3 ¼” diameter circle out of Whisper White CS using a circle cutting system (I used the Coluzzle).
  4. Stamp your greeting onto the Whisper White CS circle in Chocolate Chip classic ink.  Use a stamp-a-ma-jig if necessary. Center and stick the Whisper White CS circle onto the Chocolate Chip scalloped circle.
  5. Stick the scalloped circle onto a 4” x 5 ¼” piece of textured Pretty in Pink CS (center it between the left and right edge and about ¼” down from the top edge).
  6. Take a 3” high x 3 ¾ wide” piece of Sending Love DP.  Trim it on an angle so that the right side of the DP remains at 3” high while the left edge of the DP is about 2 ½” high.
  7. Center and stick the DP along the bottom of the Pretty in Pink CS piece with Snail adhesive.
    Lay a 6” piece of Chocolate Chip Satin ribbon along the top angled edge of the DP.  Bring the ends of the ribbon around to the back of the CS and stick them down using Snail adhesive.
  8. Center and stick the Pretty in Pink CS piece to the Barely Banana card front using Snail adhesive.
    Stick the Sweet Pea stitched felt flower, leaves and bud to the bottom right corner of the circle, on the Chocolate Chip Satin ribbon.  You’re done!
I hope you enjoyed today’s project!
