Step-by-Step Instructions:
- Fold the Basic White cardstock in half to create your card base.
- Using the 3-1/4″ x 4-1/2″ piece of Basic White cardstock, stamp the single flower and leaves on the left side of the cardstock using Lemon Lime Twist ink. (See sample for placement.)
- Adhere the Basic White cardstock to the 3-1/2″ x 4-3/4″ piece of Highland Heather cardstock. Cut about 20″ of White Baker’s Twine around the Highland Heather cardstock and tie into a bow on the right side. Adhere to the card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Run the 2-1/2″ square of Highland Heather cardstock through the Cut & Emboss Machine and die-cut using the floral heart die from the Hearts of Elegance Bundle Dies. Adhere the heart onto the center of the cardstock, overlapping the Baker’s Twine, using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Using the 5/8″ strip of Basic White cardstock, stamp the sentiment using Lemon Lime Twist ink and adhere as shown in the sample using Stampin’ Dimensionals to finish.
A Tip from Barb
Although this card is super simple and doesn’t use very many supplies, it does require a die-cutting machine and the Hearts of Elegance dies. For that reason, I’ve classified this card as a Worker Bee card – but it sure is a quick and easy one! 😄
