Getting Started
First stamp
the
“cake” image from the Party
Wishes stamp set in Mint Macaron onto the Whisper White 2 ½” Circle Punch.
Using the Updated Essentials Paper-Piercing Pack and a Stampin’ Piercing Mat,
pierce the Whisper White circle using the circle pattern (3
rd one
from the outside). Glue this circle onto the Crushed Curry circle.
On the piece
of vellum stamp the
“make a wish”
image from the Party Wishes stamp set in Jet Black StazOn and let dry (takes
about 30 seconds). Once dry, punch it out with the 1 3/8” circle punch.
On all four
pieces of Designer Series Paper (DSP) punch out the ends using the Triple
Banner Punch. Using Dimensionals, glue on one of the DSP banners to the
“cake” circle and glue the
“make a wish” vellum circle onto the banner
using a Glue Dot. Then tie a bow with the Mint Macaron twine from the Baker’s
Twine Combo Pack and glue it with a glue dot onto the
“make a wish” vellum circle. Set this whole piece aside.
Using the
bottom of the Confetti Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, emboss the Basic
Black, 2 ¾” x 3 ½” piece.
Assembling the Card
First, using
Tombo Multipurpose Liquid Glue, attach the three DSP banners (no pattern) to
the back of the embossed Basic Black piece. Attach the embossed Basic Black
piece using Tombo onto the 4 ¼” x 1 ¾” Mint Macaron piece.
Then, attach this
whole piece using Dimensionals onto your card base. Be careful of the banners
at the bottom as you don’t want to go over your card base’s edge. Lastly, using
Dimensionals, attach the Crush Curry circle. To complete the card add a few
“It’s My Party Enamel Dots” to the edges of the card.
