More Wood Textures Cards

Another Wood Textures Designer Series Paper project.




To create these two cards you only need one piece of the  6" x 6" Wood Textured Designer Series Paper.  This is one of those Designer Series Paper Stacks that keep on giving, with 4 sheets each of 12 designs giving you 48 pieces of different wood texture backgrounds.

Card 1



To make this card you need to the following pieces:

Measurements

A4 Early Espresso cardstock cut in half to create the card base
Wood Textures Designer Series Paper 13.8cm x 9.5cm
Very Vanilla cardstock 14.3cm x 10cm (for the inside)
Very Vanilla cardstock 13.8cm x 9.5cm
Very Vanilla cardstock 14.1cm x 9.8cm
Very Vanilla cardstock 1.5cm x 6.5cm for the sentiment
Early Espresso cardstock 14.8cm x 2cm

Technique

Fold card base.

Draw a cutting grid on your Wood Textures Designer Series Paper. When cutting make sure you place the cut pieces in order on a piece of cardstock.  This will make it easier when you come to adhere them in place, as you will know what pieces go where. Also this way you keep the wood grain of the pattern correct.  When all the pieces have been cut out, adhere to the 13.8cm x 9.5cm piece of Very Vanilla cardstock, making sure to leave small gaps between each piece. (TIP:  layout the piece out first before you start adhering so you can make sure that you have all the pieces matched up).  When all glued down, trim off the overhang on the edges and adhere to the 14.1cm x 9.8cm piece of Very Vanilla cardstock. Adhere this to the cardfront.

Attach a piece of Powder Pink Shimmer Ribbon to a the 2cm x 14.8cm piece of Early Espresso cardstock.  Adhere this to the card front.  Tie the faux bow with another piece of Powder Pink Shimmer Ribbon.

Using the Oh So Eclectic stamp set stamp the flowers using Powder Pink and Blushing Bride and the leaves using Old Olive.  Cut these out using the matching Eclectic Layers Thinlits.  Add Wink of Stella to the flowers and adhere the floral arrangement to the card front.

Stamp the sentiment "Thinking of You" onto the 1.5cm x 6.5cm piece of Very Vanilla cardstock using Early Espresso.

For the inside of the card stamp extra flowers and leaves and make a small floral arrangement on the bottom of the Very Vanilla card insert.
