Our Creatively Simple theme this month is “Patterns”! Stampin’ Up! has fabulous designer paper with patterns. This week I did a little a “Ribbon Pinwheel” technique that I saw Wendy Lee do using DSP! SO cute!
FRAGRANT LAYERS
- The base is 4-1/4 x 5-1/2 Peach Pie cardstock.
- A card fold using 5 x 7-1/2 of Thick Basic White is scored at 3-3/4. Use a pencil and mark 1-1/2″ from the bottom across, and 1-1/2 from the left side down to form an intersecting point.
- Pieces of Lovely & Beautiful DSP are cut (purposely longer than needed) to:
- 1 x 4
- 1 x 2-3/4
- 1 x 2 (cut TWO)
- NOTE: A non-directional print works best.
- Cut TWO 1 x 1 Peach Pie cardstock squares and then cut each diagonally in half. Adhere them with the point to the upper right corner on each DSP piece.
- Adhere the long DSP along the pencil line from the intersecting point to the right side.
- Adhere the next size from intersecting point to top.
- Adhere one of the shorter to the left under the line and the last next to it below the longer one.
- Trim off the excess DSP along the edges.
- Stamp the greeting with Old Olive Ink under the long piece.
- Adhere fold card to the base piece.
- Cut the small flower from Fresh Freesia cardstock and the center from Peach Pie cardstock. Adhere at the intersection with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Cut the leaf duo from Old Olive cardstock and tuck under the flower.
- Add 1 large and 2 small green Moody Palette Glossy Dots to the background.
- INSIDE: Stamp flower with Fresh Freesia Ink, center with Peach Pie Ink, leaves with Old Olive Ink.
