ABOUT MY CARD

METRIC MEASUREMENTS FOR A4 CARDSTOCK

CARD BASE (book fold card) : Thick Basic White 

*14.85cm x 21cm (scored at 10.5cm)

MAT #1: Flirty Flamingo

*14.4cm x 10cm

MAT #2: Basic White

*14.1cm x 9.7cm

Created the background with Flirty Flamingo Classic Ink Pad and Drizzling Droplets Stamp Set (stamped off to create a slightly lighter layer).  You will need Block F for this background stamp.

FLAG/BANNER: Basic White

* Largest Nested Essentials Die (flag/banner)

• Created the background witht he tile image from Enchanted Butterfly Stamp Set and Flirty Flamingo Classic Ink Pad.
• Created the banner border with Flirty Flamingo and fussy cut a border around the flag/banner.

SENTIMENT:

• Stamped multiple times with a stamp positioning tool to get a nice rich colour in Flirty Flamingo.  The sentiment is from the Artistically Inked Stamp Set and I stamped this straight onto the card front.
• After ink was dry, and without moving the card from the stamp positioning tool, I used Versamark and Clear Embossing Powder.  This further deepens the richness of the colour.

EMBELLISHMENTS:

• Paper Butterfly Accents coated with Flirty Flamingo Classic Ink, and once again used Clear Embossing Powder to enrich the colour and make the die cut stiffer and stronger.
• Iridescent Pearls Basic Jewels.
