Gallery Blooms Simplicity

Do you love a simplistic card, clean and fresh looking? I think this design brings just that look. Hi, I’m Lisa Brown and welcome to my blog, Creative Card Closet. Today I am sharing this lovely design card that was actually requested by one of my regular card class attendees. She showed me a very similar design and asked if I could make it in our in-person monthly class.

Here is a close-up and side angle short of the floral image.

The card base is Thick Basic White card stock, 5-1/2″ X 8-1/2″ scored in half on the long side at 4-1/4″. It is then topped a piece of regular Basic White card stock 4-1/8″ x 5-3/8″ and adhered with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Next, on a 4″ x 5-1/4″ piece of Basic White card stock, stamp your floral image. Also, with a Stamp Positioner Tool, lay a piece of Basic White card stock that is 1-3/4″ x 1-3/4″ and stamp the image again. Mine is from the Gallery Blooms stamp set. Color both pieces with Balmy Blue and Old Olive Stampin’ Blends markers.

Next, depending on where you stamped your image, score down the middle
Then score every 1/8″ on each side. I did a total of 10 score lines. This is where the Stampin’ Up! Trimmer is awesome with it’s detailed measurements
The number of score lines depends on the size of your image
I did not score past the ends of the image, I ended before

Add this layer to your card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Then add the 1-3/4″ x 1-3/4″ layer on top, aligned, with Stampin’ Dimensionals as well. I embellished with a Linen thread bow, some iridescent pearls and a sentiment.

Hope you liked this project! I love the Galley Blooms stamp set which is part of Beautiful Gallery Suite Collection. But it is on a Last Chance List! See the full Collection below and click on any item to shop with me!
