Supplies Needed
  

  • Barely Blush Cardstock: 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" (scored at 4-1/4")
  • Basic White Cardstock: 4" x 5-1/4" (inside card)
  • Calypso Coral Cardstock: 4" x 5-1/4"

  • Basic White Cardstock: 2-3/4" x 5-1/2" (for punching)
  • Barely Blush Cardstock: 1/2" x 3" (sentiment)

Instructions
 

  • Fold the Barely Blush Cardstock in half at the score line to create you card base. Adhere the 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Basic White cardstock inside the card and decorate as desired.
  • Using the Simple Leaf Punch from the bundle, punch out a leaf from the center of the 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Calypso Coral cardstock. Tip: make sure you punch from as close to the center as possible so that it will be covered by the Designer Paper.
  • Stamp the "branch" image onto the Calypso Coral leaf using Calypso Coral ink and set aside.
  • Run the Paper Medley Paper through the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine using the Textured Tree Ring 3D Embossing Folder. Adhere to the Calypso Coral cardstock and then to the front of the card.
  • Using the 2-3/4" x 5-1/2" piece of Basic White cardstock, stamp a large leaf at the edge of the cardstock using Barely Blush ink; punch out using Simple Leaf Punch. Using the remaining piece of cardstock, stamp 1 small leaf using Barely Blush Ink, and 2 small laves using Calypso Coral ink. Fussy cut out using scissors.
  • Assemble all the leaves onto the card front as shown in the sample.
  • Tie a large bow using the Linen Thread and adhere to the center of the leaves.
  • Stamp the sentiment onto the 1/2" strip of Barely Blush cardstock using Calypso Coral ink. Use scissors to angle the left side if desired. Adhere sentiment strip to the leaves as desired using Stampin' Dimensionals to finish.

Notes

Worker Bee  (for Confident Cardmakers)
Worker Bee projects are designed for the crafter who has a bit more time and enjoys creating a handmade card that features a technique or tool. In many cases, a Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine is required for die-cutting and/or embossing.
