Pretty Petals Classes

The cards I am sharing today were designed for my January classes using the gorgeous Pretty Petals stamp set.

Colours used in these cards are:

 

Column Card

Berry Burst card – 8¼” by 5¾” – scored on the long side at 2”, 4”, 6” & 8”
Fresh Freesia – 5½” by 1¾” x 4
Basic White – 4½” by 3” – die cut a label using the Countryside Corner Dies for the front
Basic White – 4” by 2¼” – die cut a label using the Countryside Corner Dies for the back
Basic White – 3½” by 3” – for stamping and die cutting
Basic White – 1” by ½” – scored at ½” on the long side x 6 – 4 for the front & 2 for the back

 

Place the 4 strips of Fresh Freesia card side by side and butted up against each other. Hold down with a little temporary adhesive if needed.  Use Fresh Freesia ink to stamp the floral image across all 4 pieces overlapping the panels. Keep the panels in order so that the design flows. Adhere the stamped layers to the 2” panels of the Berry Burst card, leaving a border.

Add 2 more opposite the 2 already in position on the other side of the scoreline. Add glue to the top flaps of these tabs and place the stamped label on top. Hold in place until the glue has bonded.
