Hi Everyone! Happy Thursday to you!! It's Scarlett here today bringing you a step x step card made with the new Togetherness line by Cosmo Cricket. I'll be honest in saying I wasn't to sure how much I would like and/or use this line so I started with just getting the 6x6 mini deck. After seeing it in person, I am hooked. The colors and patterns are super fun and I adore the chipboard pieces, especially the birdies.
So let's get started! Here is the card we are going to make today:
I told you those birdies were cute, aren't they??!
Step 1: Cut your card base to 5"x 5". Choose a base patterned paper and cut to 4 7/8"x 4 7/8" and adhere to card base centered. Cut another piece of patterned paper to 4.5" x 4.5". Center on top of 1st patterned paper and adhere. Cut strip of patterned paper to 4 7/8" x 2". Adere about half and inch above bottom of card base. Set card base to side. Note: I inked up all the edges of my papers and card base to make it pop a bit more.
Step 2: Pop out the scalloped blue circle from the Togetherness 6" chipboard pieces. Select a medium size Kraft Doiley from Maya Road (new in store) and adhere to the back of scalloped circle chipboard piece. Punch out a 1.5" scalloped circle from patterned paper and adhere to middle of embellishment. Note: To make the chipboard piece easier to work with add a little baby powder to the back. This will take the sticky away allowing you to easily work with it.
Step 3: Select a large and medium size chipboard bird from the Togetherness 12" Ready Set chipboard. Punch out 9 hearts from patterned paper. Attach birds using dimesional adhesive on top half. Attach heart with dimensional adhesive.
Step 4: Grab card base and rotate it so the strip is now on the right hand side. I will tell you I planned on having it at the bottom to begin with, but it didn't look right so I rotated it to suit the embellishment better. Attach embellishment to strip of paper. Create a speech bubble on patterned paper (I was fortunate enough to have a stamp on hand) and put sentiment in it. Attach with dimensional adhesive. Scatter remaining hearts on left side of card, adhere, and there you have it! A cutie little card to let someone special know you care.
Hope you give this card design a whirl. If you do be sure to upload it to the gallery so we can all see the lovely creation you made! Happy Scrappin'!
