DEAR FRIEND

Today’s card features three of this years new In-Colors, Timid Tiger, Cloud Cover and Secret Sea along with the Beautiful Gallery Designer Series Paper.  I am seeing more and more cards being created with ripped cardstock so I decided to give it a whirl, here is what I came up with…

The card base is Timid Tiger cardstock cut to 5 ½ x 8 ½” and scored at 4 ¼”.  I cut a piece of Secret Sea cardstock to 4 x 5 ½” and then I tore it vertically.  There is a trick to tearing, if you want to see more of the tear then tear towards you.  I added this to my card base.  Next, I cut a piece of Cloud Cover cardstock to 2 ¾ x 5 ½” and added that to the Secret Sea.  For my Designer Series Paper I started by cutting the 6 x 6” paper down to a piece that was 2 ½” wide and then cut three pieces from that at 1 ¾” (keep them in order and your design will be fluid on your card) and added them by placing the first and third pieces right to the top and bottom edge while keeping the sides equally spaced.  With that all done it was easy to place the center piece evenly.  Finally, I cut a scrap of the Cloud Cover cardstock to 5/8 x 2 1/8” and stamped it with the sentiment “dear friend” from the Spotlight on Nature stamp set (remember what I always say, if you don't have this set you can use a sentiment from any set you own and love just change the size of the sentiment layering accordingly) in Secret Sea Ink and added it to the front of my card popping it up with Dimensionals.

I hope you enjoy this card I certainly enjoyed making it.  As always you can find the supplies to create this card and more on my website at https://www.stampinup.com?demoid=2206796 or by clicking the shopping button at the top of this blog or the link to the supplies listed below.  Be sure to follow me at:
