Bloom Where You're Planted Birthday Wishes Collar Fold Card. Stampin Birds Team Challenge

 Good Morning Everyone,

I hope you are all well. Today I want to share with you a card I made for our Stampin Birds Team Challenge. Each week we have a new challenge set - these can be colour, theme or techniques - but this week we are following a sketch.

I chose to use the Bloom where you're planted DSP and I'm so happy with how it turned out.

Measurements

Gray Granite Cardstock

1pc - 4 1/8" x 11 3/4", scored at 5 7/8"

Basic White Cardstock

1pc - 5 5/8" x 3 7/8"

Neutrals DSP Stack

Gray Granite

1pc - 5 5/8" x 3 7/8"

Bloom Where You're Planted DSP

1pc - 5 5/8" x 3 7/8"

1pc - fussy cut Flower and pot.

Fold the Gray Granite card stock along the score line to create your card base - add the basic white panel to the inside.

Take the Bloom where you're planted DSP and find the centre point on the longest length - I just folded it over lightly and made a tiny pinch where it was but you could measure in out. Place this DSP into your trimmer and line up the notch into the track and cut into it approx 1 1/4". Rotate your DSP now and line up the top corner to the inside edge of the cut and score a diagonal line. Repeat this process for the bottom edge as well. so it should look like this

Now very carefully fold along these score lines so that you are folding the DSP towards the centre. You will create a piece like so...

Stamp the sentiments to the top and the bottom on the left hand side of the DSP, then layer this to the Neutrals DSP piece and then add to the card front.

Add a fussy cut flower and pot to the card front in the centre of the two sentiments.
