Hello everyone and happy Tuesday. I hope that you have a lovely day today and that you enjoy your week ahead.
It's that time of the week when we launch a brand new 'Anything Goes' challenge over on the Polkadoodles Digi Choosday Blog so I hope you are going to join in and don't forget the amazing discount off all crafty printable downloads until midnight today!
The card when flat fits perfectly into a standard 6" x 6" envelope. I printed out one of the papers, a sentiment and also lots of flowers and leaves from the pre-coloured clip art flowers and foliage bundle. I fussy cut out the flowers and leaves for my project and used a dark grey pen to outline the flower edges, hiding any white edges,
To create the card base itself I cut a piece of 6" x 6" white card and scored this at 3" to create a smaller tent fold base. Next I use a couple of fancy circular dies to cut out 3 circular frames from the same white card, cluing two of these together to create a strong circle. Next I cut a circle of acetate and then glued this to the circular frame before adding the third white circle over the top to hide the glued area.
I then used the smaller of the circular dies to cut into the top of my tent fold card, using the card envelope to determine how low to position the frame on the panel.
Once the base card was cut I added one of the patterned papers to the bottom, using the same die to cut out the top section. To prevent the card from opening too much and to help it stand up better, I cut a strip of white card 1" x 2" scoring this at 1/2 ", 1", 1 1/2", concertina folding this to create an M shaped piece. This was adhered inside the card at the bottom centre.
Next I adhered the oval frame to my base card and the decorated the wreath with the fussy cut flowers and leaves.
The sentiment was adhered into the centre of the acetate frame and I adhered a piece of white card to the back of the acetate to hide the glue - this can also be used to write a message on.
I hope that you like my project today and you'll enjoy the next card I share from Polkadoodles
Hasta luego 👋
Enjoy the rest of your day !
