Love You Mini Slimline Card

 

 This is the second card I made for the Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous 2024 stamps and stencils release. Today's card features the Crochet Trims (my favorite) and the Abstract Florals on a mini slimline card.

Here is a short video tutorial for making this card.

I began by making a mini slimline card base  3.5" x 6" from Distress White Heavystock. The cardfront is cut from Distress Watercolor paper and is 3.25" x 5.75".

The focal point was made by stamping the floral, then masking it and stamping leaves on both sides in Distress Archival Ink. Then watercoloring the images with Distress Ink.I fussy cut the image out after that and attached strips of chipboard to the back to pop it up off the card. Foam squares or foam tape would work as well.

If you didn't want to mask, you could get the Abstract Florals coordinating dies (linked below and exclusively from Simon Says Stamp) and then just layer the two leaves and the flower to make the bouquet.

Color the Watercolor Cardstock front with some Distress Antique Linen Spray Stain. Dry it and then stamp the Crochet Trims in  Distress Embossing Ink and emboss with Antique Linen Distress Embossing Glaze. I finished the front by doing a quick stitch around the outside of the card front.

The sentiment from Abstract Florals wash stamped in Distress Arhival Ground Espresso. It was popped up with two pieces of Chipboard underneath.

I hope those details and the video helped to answer any questions you might have about this card.

Thank you for visiting!
