A5 Petal Palette Card

How to make this card –

·       Fold an A4 sheet of Thick Whisper White cardstock in half to create an A5 card base

·       Using a sponge dauber and Mint Macaron Ink, create a focal point directly onto the card base in the top third of the card

·       Using the large leafy element from the Petal Palette stamp set and Mink Macaron Ink, add some additional detail coming out from the sponged ink on the card base

·       Stamp the rose cluster from the Petal palette set in Stazon ink coming out to the corners of the card base and colour in using an Aquapainter and ink from the ink pad. (I used Blackberry Bliss and Mint Macaron inks).

NB – do not pick up ink directly from the surface of your ink pad as this may dilute the ink. Instead, squeeze the center of your ink pad between the heels of both of your hands as this will transfer a little ink to the lid of you pad that you can then pick up easily with your Aquapainter.

·       Cut the large label from the Stitched Label Framelet dies from Whisper White cardstock and stamp onto it the sentiment of your choice from the stamp set in Mint Macaron ink. Then stamp the little flower cluster in Stazon ink and colour as you did the rose cluster.

·       Adhere to the card base, over the sponged focal point, using Stampin’ Dimensionals

·       Cut 2 of the thin trellis pieces in the Petals and More Thinlets dies from Blackberry Bliss cardstock and trim them to tuck under the Stitched label. Adhere carefully with Tombow glue or Fine Tip glue,
