A Blue and White Card

Today, I am posting one more thank you card. I wanted a blue and white combination card.

So here it is.

I have used an A4 sized white card stock as base. The top fold (4X8 inches) is smaller in width than the bottom one(5X8 inches). 

I don't know what this type of fold is known as. If you have any idea please let me know.

I took a piece of blue card stock and punched out the borders using those big border punches. Then I glued a floral printed fabric tape on it, which matched it beautifully. 

Then, I cut out a label out of white card stock scrap using Spellbinders Nestabilities-Labels 20 dies.

I stamped the sentiment using blue pigment ink, outlined it using white gel pen and glued it using dimensional dots.

The insert inside of the card is simple white paper. The envelope for this card is simple white one.

Materials Used:

• A4 size white card stock and a piece of scrap 
• Blue card stock
• Printed fabric tape
• Spellbinders Nestabilities Label Twenty dies
• Border punch big
• Sentiment Stamp
• Blue pigment Ink
• White gel pen
• Glue and dimensional dots
• White paper for insert

Hope you like this card. Keep an eye on my blog for more...

Thank You Card

Hello there!

Hope you are all doing well and busy enjoying summer holidays.

The day temperatures for the past two days have been on the rise and unbearable. This is only April yet. I don't know how the coming days will be.

Here is one more thank you Card. Actually I am making a lot of thank you cards. So you will see more of them.

This is also a very simple and easy to make card. 

I have folded  an A4 size white card stock in half, then glued a green card stock layer on it and finally a layer of the printed paper over them. I love the rangoli like design on the printed paper. 

Then I cut the label shapes using the Tattered Lace Essential Dies-Decorative Rectangles(one of my favorites) from green and white card stocks and also embossed them with a smaller sized dies. 

I stamped the sentiment on the white die cut label and used dimensional dots to adhere both green and white labels to give it a little dimensional effect.

This is the inside of the card. I have used a light green(we call it pista colour) paper, cut all the four corners with border punch and glued over dark green colour paper before using it as an insert in the card.

The envelope is plain white colour. I could not make a matching envelope as it needs paper bigger than A4 size which I don't have. 

Materials Used

• A4 size white card stock
• Green colour card stock
• Tattered Lace Essentials-Decorative Rectangles
• A5 size green printed paper
• Sentiment Stamp
• Green pigment Ink
• Dark and light green colour papers for the insert
• Border punch medium size
• Glue and dimensional dots

Hope you like this one. Watch out for more...
