I have been really enjoying the Flourishing Phrases Bundle and this is the fifth card I have made with it. The first four cards are part of an Online Class which should be ready by next Wednesday, June 22, 2016. This is a pretty quick card to make. Get out your Glue and your Big Shot and make a card! You can choose your own two colors.
SUPPLIES:
Bundle: Flourishing Phrases stamp set + Flourish Thinlits Wood #142322, Clear #142323

Elegant Eggplant

INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Cut your Sweet Sugarplum card base at 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″. Score and fold at 4-1/4″. Watch this Video for more instruction on card bases.
2. Cut five Elegant Eggplant Circular Strips using the Thinlit from the Fourish Thinlits set. Remove the excess pieces with either the Big Shot Die Brush or a toothpick. I poked a few holes at the tip with a toothpick and pulled the Circular Strip and it came of really easily.
3. Figure out where the center of your card front is (or just guess like I did). Put dots of Glue on the edges of your Circular Strip and lay it in the center. Next do the top and bottom Circular Strips, the the ones in between the center and the top or bottom strips.
4. Cut a 1-3/4″ x 4″ piece of Sweet Sugarplum for your Tag. Punch the top with the Scallop Tag Topper Punch and the bottom two corners with the Corner Rounder Punch. Stamp your sentiment in Elegant Eggplant ink. Sponge around the Tag edges with Elegant Eggplant ink.
5. Cut two Elegant Eggplant Flowers using the small flower Thinlit. Attach them to your Tag with Glue.
6. Cut about 6″ of Silver Sequin Trim. Thread through the Tag hole and tie once loosely.
7. Add Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of your Tag and attach it to your card front.
8. If desired, you can add a Circular Strip to the front of your envelope or to the envelope flap.
Have fun using the Flourishing Phrases Bundle!
