Wildly Flowering, Get Well Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I want to share with you a card I found on Pinterest. You can see the original card here. I did try to find the post on the website and after a bit of searching I did find it but there were no instructions. Please read on to see how I made this card.

The base of my card is a folded half-sheet of Basic White card stock. It opens on the right and the fold is on the left.

I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Crumb Cake card stock and taped it to the front of the card.

A 3-1/2" x 4-3/4" piece of Basic White card stock was cut for the next layer. On top of that is the Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the "Wildly Flowering" 12" x 12" package. I had a piece leftover in my package so I thought I'd trim it up for my card. Instead of cutting the piece I had used a scrap piece for the bottom part. On the original card it looks like the bottom part is around 1". Mine is a full piece and the scrap piece was taped to the front. I could have cut the piece but I decided to use the scrap piece and get it out of my package. But if I were to make another one, I would make that bottom part 1". I would cut the bottom of and flip it over if I didn't have any other scrap to get rid of. Okay, so once I got the DSP taped to the Basic White piece. I took a 5" piece of ribbon and taped the ends to the back of the Basic White piece. I tied a bow and using a glue dot I set it in place on top of the ribbon. I taped this piece to the front of the card (on top of the Crumb Cake piece)

For the word piece I used the die from the "Stylish Shapes" set and a piece of the matching DSP. The words are from my computer and were cut using a larger die from the same set. I taped the two together and then set them in place using Dimensionals. 

I added five little pearls to the bottom area and the card was done.

I like this layout. It's a perfect way to use both sides of your DSP (if you like both sides, sometimes the backside isn't always the prettiest but most of the time it is). And there you have it, a quick and easy card to make.

Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's get well card,
Wanda
