The base of my card is a folded half-sheet of Basic White card stock. It opens on the bottom and the fold is on the top.
I cut a 4-1/8" x 5-3/8" piece of Misty Moonlight card stock for the layer. On top of that is a 4" x 3-1/8" piece of Basic White card stock that I textured using the "Distressed Tile" embossing folder. I textured the piece before cutting it. I glued it to the left side of the Misty Moonlight piece. On the right side is a 4" x 1-1/2" piece of Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the "Timeless Plaid" 6" x 6" stack. I taped it to the left. Then I taped the whole thing to the card base.
Next came the top layers. The pretty floral piece was cut from a sheet in the "Storybook Moments" 12" x 12" package of DSP. There's a full sheet of a fun variety of images, this was one of them and it measures 3" x 4". I cut a 3-1/8" x 4-1/8" piece of Peach Pie card stock for the layer. Behind that layer is a 3-1/4" x 4-1/4" piece of Misty Moonlight. Those layers were taped together.
The little mouse was added next. It's from another sheet in the "Storybook Moments" package. I added Dimensionals to the back and set it in place on the center of the floral piece.
Then I took some ribbon I had and taped the ends to the back. I had cut that piece about 4-1/2". Then I slipped another piece of ribbon under the front piece and tied a knot and trimmed the ends. Dimensionals were added to the back of the piece and it was set in place on the front of the card.
The words were done next. They are from the "Storybook Friends" bundle and were stamped using Misty Moonlight ink. I cut them out using a die from the "Stylish Shapes" set. I taped them in place and the card was done.
This was such a super quick and easy card to make. I like how it turned out using the ribbon (retied) that I had on hand. This would make a great friendship or thinking of you card too. I just love the colors.
Thank you SO much for stopping by to see today's Easter card,
