Happy Thank You Medallion

Here is a simple, yet elegant card. I love the classic black and white look. Thoughts? 

Happy Birthday Medallion

Stamps:

   Daydream Medallions

   Perfectly Penned 

Paper:

   Basic Black A-2, 4-1/2" Sq., 2-1/2" Sq.

   Basic White 5-1/4 x 4 (2), 3-1/2" Sq., 1-1/2 " Sq.

   Tuxedo Black Memento

Technique:

   Die Cutting

Accessories:

   Floral Frames Collection Dies

   1/2" Circle Punch

   Medium Pearl - Pretties Kit

   Glue Dots

   Adhesive

First, I stamped the Basic White squares with the Daydream Medallions Stamp Set.

I then die cut the medallion, using the Floral Frames Collection dies and the Black and White (stamped) squares.

Next, I arranged them on the Basic White panel and adhered them, using liquid adhesive.

I then added a medium pearl from the Pretties Kit, using a glue dot.

Next, I stamped the sentiment on the bottom of the Basic White panel.

Lastly, I added this panel to the Basic Black card front and adhered the other Basic White panel to the inside of the card.

Here is another card with a different sentiment:

Thank You Medallion

I followed the same steps stated above. They are identical, except for the sentiment.

Floral Note

I do like the idea of making a card in a particular shape. Using die cuts makes the whole process quite easy. You only need to remember to keep one end intact in order to open it. What do you think? 

Stamps:

  Flourishing Phrases

Paper:

  Daffodil Delight 5 x 11 scored @ 5-1/2, 2-1/4 Sq.

  All Abloom DSP 4-1/2 Sq.

Ink:

  Archival Basic Black

Technique:

  Die Cutting

Accessories:

  Floral Frames Collection Dies

  2015-2017 In-Color Blossom Collection

  Basic Rhinestone Jewels

  Basic Pearl Jewels

  Dimensionals

  Glue Dots

  Adhesive

Die cut the card base with one of the larger dies from the Floral Frames Collection Dies. Note that the left edge is uncut and folded. I just made sure the die was past that edge so it would not cut it. You may have to pass your card a couple of times through your machine because you are cutting through two sheets. 

Next, I cut the DSP, using a smaller die cut from the collection. I adhered this piece onto the card front.

I then stamped and die cut the center of the flower. I attached it, using dimensionals.

I added a flower embellishment with a glue dot.

Lastly, I added a few rhinestones and pearls. You can die cut a white panel for the inside of the card if you wish. The Daffodil Delight is light enough to write on it. The choice is yours.

Blushing Heart

I raided my stash to create this card. I just cannot part with my older stamps that are still mounted on wooden blocks. As long as my stamp-a-ma-jig works, I may never remove the rubber from the wood. Do you still have stamps on wooden blocks? Thoughts?

   Nice & Easy Notes

Paper:

   Blushing Bride A-2

   Blushing Bride Glimmer Scraps

   Love Blossoms DSP 5-1/4 x 4

   Basic Black 4" Sq.

   Whisper White 3-1/4" Sq., 5-1/4 x 4 (Inside)

Ink:

   Archival Basic Black

Markers:

   Basic Black

   Basic Gray

   Blushing Bride

   Early Espresso

   Garden Green

   Melon Mambo

   Pink Pirouette

   Real Red

Technique:

   Coloring

   Die Cutting

   Punching

   Sponging

Accessories:

   Rose Red Stitched Ribbon 4"

   Hearts Border Punch

   Small Heart Punch

   Window Frames Collection

   Floral Frames Collection

   Sponge

   Glue Dots

   Dimensionals

First, I stamped and colored my image using the markers listed above. Of course, you may choose to use any colors or medium you like.

Next, I die cut my image and its background. I used Basic Black to add a background for my sweet girl because I felt the tiny hearts were too busy for her. I did sponge the edges of her die cut to further separate her from her background. I adhered these two pieces together.

I added a panel of designer series paper to the card front, and attached 4 inches of stitched ribbon on the bottom. I punched and adhered small glitter hearts to the ribbon. These were added using glue dots.

I then attached the die cuts with the image to the top of the card front using dimensionals. I punched a small heart and adhered it inside the heart.

Lastly, I added the Whisper White panel to the inside of the card.
