Your Watermelon

The Dotted Lace Trim does a wonderful job adorning the card front. Still, you can easily designate this card for a specific purpose by simply adding a sentiment or greeting. Thoughts? 




Stamps:
   None

Paper:
   Watermelon Wonder A-2
   Affectionately Yours DSP 5-1/4 x 4
   Basic White 5-1/4 x 4 (Inside)

Ink:
   None

Technique:
   CAS

Accessories:
   Watermelon Wonder 1" Dotted Lace Trim (24")
   Pearl Basic Jewels
   Adhesive

First, I tied the Dotted Lace Trim around the center of the Affectionately Yours DSP panel.

I then adhered the panel onto a Watermelon Wonder card front.

Next, I trimmed off the ends of the ribbon.

Lastly, I added a few pearls to the centers of the flowers and adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card.

Pastel Florals

You can easily designate this card for a specific purpose by simply adding a sentiment or greeting to the card front. I chose to keep it as is, and designate its purpose as the need arises. Thoughts? 




Stamps:
   None (Mixed Labels)

Paper:
   Petal Pink A-2
   Basic Black 5-3/8 x 4-1/8

   None

Technique:
   CAS

Accessories:

   Pastel Adhesive-Backed Sequins
   Glue Dots
   Adhesive

Note: Although, I did not add a sentiment, the Mixed Media Florals DSP coordinates with the Mixed Labels Stamp Set if you would like to add some stamping to the card front.

First, I tied a knot in the center of the Petal Pink Diagonal Trim and placed it on the left side of the DSP panel. I secured the knot in place with a glue dot and adhered the ends to the back of the panel.

I then adhered the panel onto a Basic Black matte and then adhered it to the Petal Pink card front.

Lastly, I added a few of the Pastel Adhesive-Backed Sequins to the card front and adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card.
