I love these pretty cards with an unexpected fun fold style opening! It works beautifully with a large focal point like the one you can create with the Art Gallery stamp set! I've got the dimensionals below, but be sure to watch the video to see how it's assembled.
Background Basics—I selected a pretty pattern of Fine Art Floral Designer Series Paper and cut two 4" x 3" pieces. I scored each piece at the 1" mark along the 3" side. Then, I folded down the corners to that 1" score line to make a point. the 1" flap that is left is adhered behind a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Basic White; one point on the top and one on the bottom.
I used the point of my Bone Folder to really crease those folds so that points would lay flat. Then, I adhered the layers onto a 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" quarter sheet of Pretty Peacock cardstock.
Focal Point Foundation—I embossed a 2-1/2" x 4" piece of Smoky Slate cardstock with the soon-to-retire Subtle Embossing Folder, then layered it onto a 2-3/4" x 4-1/4" piece of Pool Party cardstock. I adhered the top of the layers to the top point on the card base.
Fabulous Flower—I stamped the Art Gallery solid flower image in Petal Pink ink onto Basic White cardstock, then added a flower center in Poppy Parade ink. The stem is stamped in Pretty Peacock ink. Both are die-cut using the coordinating Floral Gallery Dies from the bundle and the image is popped up with Dimensionals and Mini Dimensionals.
Finishing Touches—I stamped the Art Gallery greeting in Poppy Parade ink onto a Petal Pink die-cut from the Floral Gallery Dies set. It's popped up with Mini Dimensionals, too. I finished by adding a few Champagne Rhinestones floating around the flower. So sweet!
Two Cool—My second card starts with a different pattern of Fine Art Floral DSP for the points, and the layers are mounted onto a Night of Navy card base. The focal point foundation is an embossed Basic White layer mounted onto a Merry Merlot mat.
Flowering Focal Point—This bloom is stamped with Flirty Flamingo stamped off once, with a Night of Navy center. The stem is Mossy Meadow.
Sweet Sentiment—I used the larger Floral Gallery die label for this longer sentiment, stamped in Night of Navy onto Petal Pink cardstock. I added Night of Navy gems from the Holiday Rhinestones pack. Lovely!
