CWK Alternative card 2 of 8 for Paper Pumpkin Sweet Sunflowers August 2022
Who knew the outside of an envelope could become such a beautiful focal point for a card?
Love the combination of Fresh Freesia and Blackberry Bliss on the Design a Daydream paper, so I immediately knew I wanted to pair it with this envelope piece. Gatefolds are fun to use for background papers that show off a focal point like this one. I used both the negative and positive diecut pieces from a Scallop Contour rectangle die. (Inside and outside the card.)
#2 Measurements:
- Blackberry Bliss: 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″, scored at 2 1/8″ in from each end.
- Fresh Freesia: 3 3/4″ x 5″
- Basic White: 3 1/2″ x 4 7/8″
- Design a Daydream DSP: 2″ x 5 3/8″ (x 2 pieces)
- Kit Mossy card base piece: 1/2″ x 2″ ish
- Kit envelope front: 2 7/8″ x 4 1/8″ ish
- Ribbon: 3″ ish
#2 Instructions:
- Glue Blackberry DSP pieces onto flaps of gatefold cardbase.
- Stamp the greeting with Blackberry Bliss onto Mossy card base piece and cut ends at an angle or fishtail…whatever floats your boat.
- Stamp small branch from Kit stamp set twice without reinking on the inside white rectangle, then mount onto inside of card.
- Mount outline left after diecutting Freesia rectangle inside card.
- Mount floral envelope piece onto Fresh Freesia rectangle with Dimensionals.
- Mount rectangle on left side only with Dimensionals.
- Add embellishments as desired.
Notes about all 8 alternatives:
- It seems EVERYBODY LOVED THIS KIT and wishes we had refills!
- I was truly inspired to create several alternatives since it was so easy to double/triple/quadruple the kit by cutting all 9 card fronts in half and using the fronts and backs separately.
- I also cut up all the envelopes and made multiple cards using those pieces as focal points on additional card bases from my Stampin’ Up! stash.
