Succulent Garden Card #4 Perfect Day card

This is the 4th card in the Succulent Garden One Sheet Wonder card series.

Start with a Whisper White Thick card stock base. You will use a piece of designer paper cut to 4"x 2" and a piece of 3/4" x 4" piece of the reverse side . I layered those two pieces atop a piece of Old Olive card stock cut to 4-1/4" x 3-1/8". To cover the seam and to create a little more interest, I added a strip of Calypso Coral card stock 1/2" x 4-1/4" (you probably have some of that in your scrap pile!)

Layer the pieces however you like and add Calypso Coral thick bakers twine around the coral piece and tie into a bow.

Stamp your sentiment onto the top right of the card base. I made the flower using Calypso Coral card stock and three layering dies from the Succulent Framelits Dies. Using a sponge dauber or a stamping sponge, sponge a little calypso coral ink onto the edges to add some dimension to the flower. I stacked them using glue dots in between each one. A pearl in the center finishes it off and a dimensional raises it up off the card.
