Enduring Beauty 9 panel Birthday Card. Smithy's Crafty Stamping Club Challenge

  Good Afternoon Everyone,

Today I'm taking part in Smithy's Crafty Stamping Club (over on Facebook) current challenge, which is a fabulous card sketch.

I've used the Enduring Beauty Stamp Set and stamped this large image across a piece of Card and then cut it and placed it 'back together' so the image runs all over the smaller panels. 

What do you think?

------------------------------------------

Take the Blueberry Bushel card stock and fold along the score line to create your card base  adding the larger piece of Very vanilla to the inside.

ink up the large floral image from Enduring Beauty in memento ink and stamp in the centre of the remaining piece of Very Vanilla. Once the ink is fully dry, colour with your Stampin Blends. I used Granny Apple Green and Melon Mambo.

Now, place this piece into your trimmer and cut into the nine panels. Each panel measures 1 1/8" x 1 3/4". I found it easier to cut the piece into 3,  1 1/8" strips - laying them next to me in the right position. Then I took each thin strip and cut it down the length at 1 3/4" to get three rectangles. I then laid these out in there correct position, before moving onto the next strip.

This helped keep everything in order and stop the likelihood of placing the wrong piece in the wrong place.

Now, lay your piece of Azure Afternoon cardstock infront of you and transfer to 9 stamped pieces across. I used liquid glue to stick them down so I had a little time to readjust if needed. Carefully and mindfully stick all the pieces down. 

Add this panel to the card front.

On a scrap of Very Vanilla stamp the Birthday Sentiment from Country Birdhouses in Blueberry Bushel ink and trim, then layer onto a scrap of Blueberry Bushel Card Stock and trim as needed.

Add this to the lower row of rectangles, centering it as best you can and stick down with dimensionals.

I hope you have enjoyed my card today, I had so much fun creating it and I'll be sure to be keeping this layout in mind for some future projects.
