Cardstock Measurements
  

  • Blueberry Bushel Cardstock: 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" scored at 4-1/4"
  • Basic White Cardstock: 4" x 5-1/4" (2 pieces)
  • Lights of Aurora Designer Paper: 3-7/8" x 5-1/8"
  • Basic White Cardstock: Scrap for Die-Cutting (approx 2-1/2" x 3-1/2")
  • Blueberry Bushel Cardstock: 1/2" x 3-3/4"

Step-By-Step Instructions
 

  • Fold the Blueberry Bushel cardstock in half at the 4-1/4" score line to create your card base.
  • Adhere one of the 4" x 5-1/4" pieces of Basic White cardstock inside the card base.
  • Adhere the Lights of Aurora paper to the other 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Basic White cardstock and adhere to the front of the card.
  • Stamp the focal image onto the scrap of Basic White cardstock using Tuxedo Black Memento ink. Color in the River using the Dark Balmy Blue Blend; color in the sky area lightly using the Light Balmy Blue Blend.
  • Run the White cardstock through the Cut & Emboss Machine and die-cut using the 2-1/8" x 3-1/8" Traditional Labels Die. Tip: if you don't have the dies or a die-cutting machine, just cut your Basic White cardstock to 2-1/8" x 3-1/8" and use the rectangle.
  • Using scissors, "banner notch" both ends of the 1/2" strip of Blueberry Bushel Cardstock. Adhere to the back of the Basic White cardstock as shown in the sample. Adhere to the front of the card as desired.
  • To finish, add 3 of the Hues of Blue Flowers as desired; add Wink of Stella to the stamped scene as desired to add a bit of sparkle.
