Hi Everyone,

Today's card is a joy fold card using the fabulous Dandy Designs dsp which is FREE during Sale-A-Bration with a qualifying order. I've teamed it with a FREE stamp set for the sentiments - Beautifully Happy, and the Two Tone Flora from the Mini Catalogue for the stamped images. I made this card as part of the Video Hop with Stamp Around UK, click on the link below:

Instructions

On the long side score the largest piece of bermuda bay card at 6 1/4", fold and burnish to make the larger portion of the card. On the long side score the smaller piece at 4 1/8" and fold and burnish to make the smaller card.

Add all the dsp layers - remember that the small card opens the opposite way to the larger one.

Adhere the smaller card on top of the larger one so that it sits centrally and opens the opposite way to the larger one.

Stamp a sentiment on the piece of white for the inside as well as some leaves and adhere in place.

To stamp the design for the card front, first stamp a couple of the filled images on post it notes and fussy cut them to use as masks.

Stamp the filled images in coastal cabana towards the bottom of the basic white piece, stamp one and then add a mask over it and stamp the second one. Add another mask on top of that and stamp the cluster of flowers.

Change to bermuda bay and stamp the detail on the two clusters while both masks are still in place, then remove the right hand one and stamp the detail and repeat then with the left hand one. Add some leaves around the edges and the sentiment in the centre.

Adhere this piece to the card front and add some rhinestones to the cluster flowers and the card is complete. I hope that you like it.
