So here is the "Just Because" card from page 125 of the Stampin' Up! 2014-15 catalog.
I'm going to use this in an upcoming workshop, but made a few changes!
(CASE-ing stands for Copy and Share Everything.)
First I cut a piece of "Calypso Coral" cardstock to 4" x 8", then I scored to make a 4 x 4 card.
After stamping a sentiment from "Petite Pairs" I got ready to die cut with the "Chalk Talk Framelits" die.
Easy to do with the Sizzix!
Used some "Calypso Coral" twine instead of the paper strip in the original.
Used a matching strip of patterned paper cut 3 x 4.
The original called for gold embossing on the flower, but I wanted to try just stamping. I decided the lighter color looks better.
It was easy to punch out the flower with the matching punch!
I used the dimensionals to put the die cut on the card, and to put the flower on the die cut.
Then I used a sequin for the flower center.
But I wasn't done! Since I don't have any 4 x 4 envelopes, I decided to make a matching one with the envelope punch board. Starting with a square cut the right size.
After finding the correct starting measurement, just line up, punch and score.
Then continue rotating and repeating.
There you go, finished card with matching envelope!
