Today I'm sharing a card that looks alot more complicated than it is! I even kind of suprised myself when it was done (LOL!) because it hardly took any time to make! I created it for this week's Heartfelt Creations Blog Post which you can see here.
I started with this really pretty Spellbinders card background die (Nestabilities Card Creator Dies - 5 x 7 Mystical Embrace) and die cut 3 panels from white cardstock. I die cut a 4th panel from designer paper. I scored one of the white die cut panels about 3/4" from the top, added glue to the area above the score line, and adhered it to a second white panel to form my card base.
I then glued the designer paper panel over the card base, and finally adhered the third white panel on top of the designer paper with foam dimensional squares. I lightly sponged on some purple ink to the top white die cut panel.
Once the card base was ready, I cut a sentiment strip from the designer paper and curled it with the edge of my scissors - like you would for curling ribbon on a package. I threaded it in its curled shape between the top two layers of the card base and glued it down at the points where it made contact with my card base.
Next I die cut and shaped my Heartfelt Creations flowers, leaves and butterflies, attached them as shown - pretty random. And that was it!
