STAMPIN' PRETTY TIPS:
-
The Whisper White card base measures 5 1/2" x 4". I cropped it 1/4" less wide than a standard A2 card (5 1/2" x 4 1/4") so that I could "dangle" the Marina Mist layer over the right side and still fit it in a Whisper White Medium Envelope (107301).
- That's the Top Note Die in the background with a simple modification to make it square using a Big Shot. Learn more with this Top Note Die Squared Video Tutorial.
- I inked the flower image from Flower Fest (Stampin' Up! Summer Mini Catalog) in Not Quite Navy and stamped it twice on Bashful Blue and once on Marina Mist. I cropped out the images and stacked to build a custom flower.
- The 2 3/8" Scallop Circle Punch coordinates with the full flower image. So easy! I used Paper Snips for the rest.
- Thread your button with Stampin' Up! 1/8" Taffeta Ribbon. I used Marina Mist to add the charming touch. Watch my 1 Minute to WOW video for a demonstration.
