A floating inner panel card made using the Help Me Grow stamp set and dies from Stampin' Up!

Garden Themed Floating Inner Card

Hello and welcome to the Stamping Inkspirations Blog Hop where we are sharing fun fold cards. Love a fun fold and decided to make a garden themed floating inner card using the gorgeous Help Me Grow stamp set and dies.

Colours used to make this card are:

 

I created the pretty pink floral card using the following supplies:

Cajun Craze card – 5¾” by 4⅛” x 2
Basic White card – 5½” by 3⅞” x 3
Painted Illusions dsp – 5⅜” by 3¾” x 3
Basic White card – 4½” by 3½”

Thick Basic White card – 11” by 4” scored at 2¾”, 5½” & 8¼”
Petal Pink card – 3¾” by 2½” x 4 x 4

The larger panels of Painted Illusions dsp were adhered to the three larger pieces of Basic White card. Two of these dsp pieces were then glued to the larger Basic White panels, one on the front and the other on the back – this will be the front of the card. The last panel was then glued to the front of the remaining large piece of Cajun Craze card.

Let the decorating begin – for the front I stamped, and die cut a pot using Cajun Craze ink. I die cut the saucer from Basic White scrap and added Cajun Craze and Mossy Meadow ink with Sponge Daubers. I cut a slit at the top of the pot and added leaves, die cut from scrap Granny Apple and Pretty Peacock card. The flowers were cut from scrap Lemon Lolly and White card and the yellow centres added with a Lemon Lolly Blends Pen. All the pieces were then arranged on the card front.

The stamped panel was then adhered to the Old Olive layer. I wrapped a length of Old Olive Baker’s Twine, sadly retired, around the panel secured on the back with Sellotape. The whole panel was then glued to the Thick Basic White card front.

From the smallest piece of Basic White card I die cut a label using the Nested Essentials dies.  The sentiment was stamped onto the label with Old Olive ink. I die cut a slightly larger label from the piece of Old Olive card and glued the two labels together. The label was added to the card front on Dimensionals.

Foam Adhesive Strips were added around the edge of the Window Sheet and between the rows of tulips to create separate compartments as I didn’t want all the shaker pieces to fall to the bottom of the card.

I placed generous pinches of Loose Frosted Dots in lines across the card front on the dsp taking care to avoid the area where the adhesive strips would be. The backing was removed from the strips and the panel placed over top and pressed into place.

Three tulip flowers were die cut using the same large die from a scrap strip of Lemon Lolly card. These were pieced into some of the negative spaces and held in position with Mini Glue Dots. I used a Take Your Pick Tool to life the petals of the flowers.
