I have a fun "window" card using the 'Dragonfly Garden' Bundle!
I think this turned out clean, simple & cute!!
This is how I made the window....
I slide a 2 1/4" Circle Punch down from the top/card front,
centered it & then punched it out!
When making this card I did something 'old' I did years ago.
As I use to layer my white cards the way I did this one-
so that it had a colored base.
The Basic White card is 5 1/4 x 8"- score at 4" & fold in half.
Then layer this onto a 4 1/4 x 5 1/2" Misty Moonlight piece of card stock
for the back of the card base.
I stamped the flowers/stems on the inside of the card like this.
Basic White card front and then wrapped the ribbon around the entire part.
I cut a little slit, directly over the fold line
(by placing the fold line in the cutting part of my Paper Trimmer)-
making it just big enough to slide the end of the 12" piece of
Misty Moonlight ribbon into it.
I then tied a knot in it on the front side.
How did I get the words like this?
I actually just stamped them onto a little piece of
Basic White card stock & fussy cut out around them with my scissors.
Look closely at the little dragonfly.....
I punched it out of Misty Moonlight card stock & then punched it
out again with Vellum and layered them on top of each other!
I decided to add some Wink of Stella over the top of the vellum dragonfly
to give it some added sparkle!
So what do you think?
I think that this is a totally Susie card!
