BEAUTIFULLY HAPPY ACETATE BIRTHDAY

A few weeks ago, I shared a video on Connect to Create about how to create cards with Window Sheets.  

One of those cards, made with the Grassy Grove Bundle, was shared on this blog on November 28, and today I'm showing you the second card that I shared during the video.  


Today's card uses two sneak peek products that will be available on January 5, 2023.  The flower on the front of the card is from a Sale-a-Bration stamp set called Beautifully Happy, and the Designer Series Paper (DSP) on the edges of the Window Sheet are from the Dry Brushed Metallic DSP Collection which will be available in the new Mini Catalog.  This paper is absolutely gorgeous!

The flower was stamped with the two-step stamp in Rich Razzleberry and Soft Succulent.  It is adhered to the window sheet, so it looks like it is floating.  I did adhere it with dimensionals, but I think if I were to make it again, I would adhere it directly to the window sheet using the technique I demonstrated in the video.

Adhering it directly will still provide the appearance of the flower floating, but when you open the card, you will not see dimensionals on the back of the flower.



For the inside of the card, I added another small flower and the cute little Bee.  I placed them carefully so they would look like they were part of the bouquet when you saw them through the Window Sheet.


Placement of the sentiment was also carefully positioned so that it was completely hidden by the flower on the Window Sheet.

For consistency, I also added a strip of the pretty Designer Series Paper to the Basic White cardstock panel used for the inside of the card.

For more details on how to make this card, a written tutorial is available to download at this link.
