A Favorite With the Share What You Love Suite
I think the Share What You Love Specialty Designer Paper is my favorite of all time! It is so rich and the pieces work so well together. This card, with its special fold and use of three different designs, is one of my favorites so far.
One of the things I have learned in making cards is that the final measurement is what counts. When the card is folded, it should measure 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" for a standard card that fits our medium envelopes. Play around with folds and you can do almost anything, although this is one of the more common folds. My card base was one sheet cut lengthwise at 5-1/2", resulting in a piece that was 5-1/2" x 11". Because I knew the resulting card size, I scored it at 4-1/4". The remaining segment can simply be folded in half, but the scoring would be at 3-3/8". Two pieces of dsp were cut to 3-3/8" x 5-1/4" and the final piece was 1" x 5-1'4". The Very Vanilla insert was 3" x 5-1/4"
I used the Beautiful Bouquet stamp set for the words on this card. The words and their fonts are so beautiful! And what a perfect message for an anniversary card. because the flowers don't fit on the oval with the words, I stamped an extra flower and fussy cut it to add to the element, extending past the ovals.
