Hues of Happiness Best Wishes Card

 Hi Everyone,


I just can't stop playing with this designer series paper, it is just so pretty. Today's card could be used for lots of occasions as it just has 'Best Wishes' on the front and the 'Wishing you all the happiness you can imagine' on the inside - get well, wedding, thank you, anything at all. I've used the Gingham Embossing Folder and the Scalloped Contour dies as well. Let me show you how I made it.

Materials

1 piece of pool party card stock 5 7/8" x 8 1/4", 1 piece 3 1/4" x 4 1/2"
2 pieces of basic white card 3 7/8" x 5 5/8", scrap for the sentiment
1 piece of dsp2 5/8" x 4", scraps for fussy cutting
Happiness Abounds stamp set
Night of navy ink
Iridescent rhinestones
Gingham Embossing Folder
Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine
Scalloped Contour dies
Trimmer
Simply Scored
Bone Folder
Take Your Pick Tool
Multipurpose adhesive
Dimensionals
Paper Snips

Instructions

On the long side score the pool party card at 4 1/8" and fold and burnish to make the card base.

Run one piece of white through the machine in the Gingham Embossing folder and die cut the scalloped rectangle.

Adhere the embossed layer to the card front.

Add the dsp inside the stitched lines on the scalloped rectangle and add to the card front using dimensionals.


Stamp a sentiment on a scrap of white and add to the card front as in the picture. Stamp a sentiment on the remaining piece of white and add to the inside of the card. Fussy cut a couple of floral images from the dsp - I've used partial images from around the edge of the paper.


Add some bling to the flower centres and the card is complete. I hope that you like it and will give it a try.
