Let’s get Started:
Card Base: 5.5 x 8.5, scored and folded at 4.25
Card Face: 5.25 x 4
Card Face:
- I laid my card face on a piece of scrap paper and positioned the stencil.
- After securing the stencil with low-tack tape, I applied white embossing paste over the exposed areas. I set this aside to dry.
- I added Lindy’s magical sprays in pink and blue to provide sparkle and visual interest
Other:
- I looked through my Ready To Go binder and grabbed the old lady – already stamped, coloured, and fussy cut, ready to go.
- I stamped and die-cut the sentiment.
Assembly
- I centered and glued the card face to the card base.
- I added the old lady and the sentiment as shown in the picture.
Final Thoughts:
I was happy with this patterned card face,but unsure how to finish it. Then inspiration struck with the old lady-coffee combination and I was off to the races.
