TGIF, peeps! I don't know whether my card today could serve as a wedding card or a birthday card. What I do know is that it's a CASE of my friend and upline, Mary Deatherage. I had three ladies in to make this card and everyone enjoyed it. I hope you'll try it too if you haven't already created a Joy Fun Fold. I've done several in the past and I can feel another one coming on!
My granddaughter loves ginko so this will be for her wedding or birthday, whichever comes first!
Measurements are listed below along with a partial list of supplies. My card base is Smoky Slate. The mats are Soft Succulent. Mary used Just Jade and I must admit I like that color better with the Symbols of Fortune Specialty Designer Series Paper.
I used the Crane of Fortune Stamp Set for all my images and sentiments. The inks I used are Balmy Blue, Soft Succulent and Smoky Slate. I cut the crane out with the Good Fortune Dies. The sentiment is cut out with the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. Both the sentiment and crane are adhered with Stampin' Dimensionals.
For the embellishments, I used three Metallic Pearls.
The inside consists of a smaller card adhered to the larger card.
The card base is Soft Succulent with a mat of Smoky Slate. The sentiment is stamped in Balmy Blue and the leaf image in Soft Succulent. The dragonflies are Smoky Slate.
