Blissful Summer Card

Standard sizes cards are nice, but I wanted to try my hands on a more unusual shape.

The card below measures 8"x8". The front is created from six triangular shapes, which are running through the bottom left-hand corner and are then trimmed off along the spine of the card.


I used the following products for this project:
  • Little Claire's 'Blissful stamp'
  • Joy! Crafts and Marianne D dies for the flowers
  • Leaf dies from Little Claire
  • Oval and scallpoed oval dies
  • Linen textured A4 card from Southfield
  • Textured 12"x12" card in co-ordinating colours for the card front
  • Textured cardstock in soft colours for the die-cut shapes
  • Glass smooth 200gsm card from Southfield (as base for the stamped image)
  • Black Memento ink pad
  • ProMarkers
  • Adhesive
  • Toolbox essentials

I loved working on this project. Just be aware that it is a bit time consuming to create the 'spiky' card blank.
