1. Using Vanilla Ice embossing powder and the VersaMark inkpad, stamp and emboss DAISY MEDALLION image on a sizable piece of dark navy blue cardstock. Stamp and emboss it again on white cardstock using Satin Velvet embossing powder.
2. Cut each DAISY MEDALLION image exactly in half. The side of each piece where the medallion was cut is the only side that will be perfectly straight. Using a self-healing grid cutting mat, a ruler and a pencil, draw a line on the other three sides in order to make the piece square. Don’t worry about the exact size now; just use the lines on the grid to make the pieces square and the same size. Cut each piece exactly on the drawn lines. Do this to the other three half pieces. Put one of the white and one of the navy blue pieces aside for making another card.
3. Cut about a 1” piece of Scotch tape and have it within your reach. Match up the navy half exactly with the white half. Hold the pieces in one hand, making sure the middle of each medallion and all the other lines match up perfectly and slip the piece of tape underneath to attach them together. Now turn it over and completely secure the two halves together with Scotch tape.
4. Make a horizontal card 6 ½”x 5” from dark navy blue cardstock. Round all four corners with the punch.
5. Cut a piece of the navy & white crossed lines specialty paper smaller than the front of the card as shown. Round all four corners with the punch and attach it to the front of the card with double stick adhesive tape.
6. Using Satin Velvet embossing powder and the VersaMark inkpad, stamp and emboss the HAPPY BIRTHDAY saying on white cardstock and cut it to size as shown. Cut a piece of dark navy blue cardstock slightly larger than the saying to layer behind it. Attach them together with double stick adhesive tape.
7. Cut the medallion piece to size as shown and round all four corners with the punch.
8. Attach the image and saying pieces to the front of the card as shown with double stick adhesive foam tape.
9. String the three beads on the thread with the pearl bead in the middle. Secure them tightly in a circle as shown by tying a few knots in the thread. Cut the excess string off and attach the beads to the top of the saying with a mini glue dot. Attach a small dark navy bow above the beads with a mini craft dot. |
