Base card Sweet sugarplum cardstock
8 1/2" x 5 1/2" scored @ 4 1/4"

 Succulent DSP layer 1 Cut @ 4" x 5 1/4"
Succulent DSP Layer 2 Cut @ 3 6/8" x 5"

Whisper white cardstock for tag.
Tag cut @ 2" x 4 1/4"  then punched using scallop tag topper punch.

Beautiful you stamp set used stamped once on tag and once on checked succulent DSP in archival black ink.
Then fussy cut dress portion and hat portion and paper pieced onto image on tag.
Whisper white cardstock used to cut succulent flower, using co -ordinating thinlets then sponged with sweet sugarplum ink. I then shaped and adhered flowers together using Tombo glue.

The tag was sponged with sweet sugarplum ink as well using a sponge dauber.

I tied some sweet sugarplum ribbon to tag and added dimensionals on the back to give the tag a bit of dimension on the card.

The photo looks like I used another colour on the flower but it is a shadow.

I do hope you like it.

Hello everyone,
This is a card I made a few weeks ago and forgot to share with you all.
So here is the photo of the finished card.


Here are the digits and stuff you need to complete this card:

Card base: #138344 Mint macaron cardstock 8 1/4 x 5 1/2 scored @ 4 1/4" (21cm x 14 cm scored @ 10.5cm)
1st Layer is #138343 Tip Top Taupe 4" x 5 5/16" (10.2 cm x 13.5cm)
2nd Layer is #142778 Succulent garden DSP 3 13/16" x 5 3/16 (9.7 cm x 13.1cm)
inside layer is #106549 Whisper white A4 cardstock 4" x 5 1/4" (10.2cm x 13.3cm)

Banner piece is #138343 Tip Top Taupe 1" x 3 1/2 " (8.6cm x 6.3cm)

Stamp set used #143637 Beautiful You
#3149666 Hearth and Home Thinlets
#142757 Succulent Framelit dies 
#142992 Oh so succulent stamp set

Inks used #141395 Sweet sugar plumb
Archival ink #140931 Basic Black

Stamp lady on whisper white card and fussy cut adhere to dsp
to the left side approx 1/4" in and approximately 3/4" down
I had to do this as I wanted the dsp to be part of the wallpaper. If I had stamped the image straight onto the dsp the pattern would show through which would have spoilt the the look of the card.
Stamp the lady 2 more times on the sweet sugar plum checked side of the DSP and fussy cut the ladies dress coming in just inside the ladies dress on the left side. It is OK that the black lines are cut off as you will be adhering this on top of your whisper white lady. Fussy cut the hat as well I just cut the upper brim and cut off the the lower part. If it bothers you you can colour the inside of the brim but I think it is fine as is.
Adhere both pieces to your whisper white piece and you can stamp the inside of your card with lady in lower left corner but only about 3/4 of the lady. cut your second dsp check pieces and adhere to inside of card image and trim.
Trim your dsp if necessary to fit behind window. I used a pencil to outline and cut about 1/16" inside the pencil lines.
Next add Tombo glue to back of window frame and adhere over backing piece with lady on.
This is what it should look like, centre picture

Adhere your layers to card base and add your whisper white piece to inside of card.
Next stamp your banner with celebrate and fish tail by snipping centre and cutting diagonally to centre cut or you can use the triple banner punch. sponge edges with Sweet sugarplum adhere to card.
 Die cut your three small flowers in whisper white and sponge edges with Sweet sugar plum ink. Stamp succulent in old olive on garden green and cut out using framelits Dies. place on left side of banner, shape succulent flowers and layer up onto leaves. Your card is now complete.

for buttons
  • Take your coloured card stock 5 1/2 x  4 1/4 and place in embossing folder and run through big shot 
  • Then with a pencil and ruler measure 1 inch from the sides of the 4 1/4 inch side and make a small mark, now measure down 1 1/2 inches from the centre and make another mark. These 3 marks form the markings for the neckline either round or V neck. For this card, we will be making a round neck. I used a 2" circle punch and placed it 3/4 of the way and punched out, then cut with scissors a smidge of each side to neaten.
  •  From the circle   piece that makes the neckline we will cut this down to make the pocket. Just lay the pocket over the right hand side cable, and match, cut off excess.
  • With your narrow pieces of cardstock using delicate details stamp set emboss your pieces with versa mark ink and embossing powder and heat set.
  • To give more depth to card I sponged with a dauber and matching ink.
  • Now we can start constructing card.
  • Place your doily at the bottom of the neckline and glue in place. You may need to trim your doily down
  • Place wider strip of cardstock to front of cardigan and trim to match neckline you can add your buttons.
  • Place your pocket in place lining up pattern and glue then, add narrow embossing to top of  card pocket.
  • Now glue to front of card and add your pearls or gems.
