Meant to Be

Meant to Be using retiring In-Colors 2018 - 2020
- Black is your card base. Cut at 11" x 4 1`/4" and scored at 5 1/2"
- Whisper White layer is 5 1/4" x 4"
- Cut your strips of colored cardstock 7/8" x 3 3/4" and adhere to the Whisper White layer. (I always start with the top strip, then the bottom strip, then the second, etc. - this allows me to space the strips evenly)
- Cut a Whisper White piece at 2 1/2" x 5 1/4", then I ran this piece through the Big Shot using the Subtles embossing folder (this is optional)
- Using the scalloped die in the Stitched Be Mine die set, I cut out 2 strips in Black cardstock and glued to the back side of the 2 1/2" x 5 1/4" piece
- Using the small heart in the Meant to Be stamp set, stamp one of each of the In-colors and then run through the die cutting machine
- On a scrap piece of Whisper White stamp your sentiment and then using the Tailored Tag Punch - punch out one Whisper White and one Black. Cut the Black in half and glue to the back of your Whisper White piece. Put Dimensionals on the back
- Now you can start to assemble your Card....
- Glue down 4 of your Hearts and pop up one Heart in the middle as shown above. Also, add your White Baker's Twine on the back side of the popped up heart. Plus add Baker's Twine to the 2 bottom hearts before glueing down.
- Add a bow
- Using dimensionals pop up this piece and adhere to your striped piece and then glue all to your base
- Finish the inside of your card to your liking, sign the back and embellish your envelope!!

- I used the largest rectangular frame in the "Painted Labels Dies" to cut out my label in Terracotta Tile
- Using VersaMark Ink I stamped my greeting and then heat embossed in White in the lower right corner
- On one card I used one of the "Die Cut Accents" (that is part of this product medley) and on the other card I stamped on a scrap of Whisper White in Black Memento and then used the coordinating die to cut out (all included in the product medley)
- Using Stampin' Dimensionals pop up the above accent piece

Ornate Garden Card #1
- Take a sheet of 8 1/2" x 11" card stock (CS) and score on the 8 1/2" side at 4 1/4" then rotate to the 11" side and cut at 5 1/2". That will give you 2 card bases.
- Cut your first layer of Crushed Curry at 5 1/4" x 4"
- Cut a piece of Whisper White CS at 5" x 3 3/4" and to that glue a piece of Designer Series Paper (DSP) cut at 1 3/4" x 5". Then take a piece of Mint Macaron CS 2 1/4" x 5" and run through your Big Shot using the Ornate Floral 3D Embossing Folder and glue to the Whisper White CS butting up to the DSP
- Using a scrap of Whisper White die cut out the boarder die from the Ornate Thanks Bundle and glue close to the seam of the 2 papers above
- I used two ribbons....Whisper White Flax Ribbon and Mint Macaron Sheer Linen Ribbon to hide all the seams
- Cutting out my label was a little tricky. It measures approximately 3 1/8" x 2 3/8". I used from the Ornate Style Bundle the largest skinny die and shortened it by not running it through all the way in my Big Shot, then cut the other side the same way.
- Stamp your sentiment on the label and pop it up on dimensionals
- Used Bakers Twine to tie a small bow and attach
- Complete the inside as you choose and don't forget to sign the back of your cards and embellish you envelope too!
