Monday Blues: Pretty Florals meets Timeless Plaid

Happy Monday and welcome to another installment of the Monday Blues. Today’s “blue” card is a pretty “celebratory” card…meaning that the sentiments are ambiguous enough that it can be used for a number of occasions.

I paired the flower from the Pretty Florals Dies with the blue plaid pattern from the Timeless Plaids 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper and added a trim using the Fancy Border Dies.

Here’s the details…

Cut the Boho Blue card base @ 7 x 5 1/2 and score at 4 1/4.

Cut Timeless Plaid DSP @ 5 1/2 x 3 1/4 but do not glue it to the card front yet.

Create the trim by layering a white and blue trim using the Fancy Border dies and gluing together. Add the trim to the bottom of the plaid DSP.

Glue the plaid panel to the card front.

Next add a 5 1/2 x 1/4 Boho Blue strip where the borders meet the plaid DSP. This will cover where the trim was glued to the plaid panel.

Cut the flower and leaves from the Pretty Florals dies in white card stock and lightly blend using Balmy Blue and Lemon Lime ink. The flower outline is cut from Boho Blue card stock. Pop up with dimensionals.

The sentiment is from the retired Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set and is heated embossed and hand cut.

I embellished the inside with DSP and a border. The sentiment is from another retired set, Peaceful Moments.

Enjoy your day!
