Just a note card

Just a note card

Description

A dark blue single fold card has four square apertures cut in the front. Each aperture is covered with a silver edged clear window sticker. The stickers feature small daisy heads punched from gold card. A silver Just a Note sticker completes the design.

Materials used

  • Dark blue single fold greetings card 125 mm (5 in) square
  • Clear plastic window stickers with silver border 40 mm square
  • Thin gold card
  • Silver dots (sticker waste)
  • Silver sticker Just a Note
  • Small daisy punch
  • Big craft punch square

Method

Open the greetings card and punch the four square apertures with the big craft punch using the illustration as a guide. You will be able to locate the position of the punch more accurately if you turn it upside down and use the hole in the base to line it up. The card was pushed in to the punch as far as it would go.

Add a clear window sticker to the front of the card over each aperture.

Punch four small daisy heads from gold card. Add one to each of the window stickers on the inside.

Add window stickers to the inside of the card, backing the ones on the front, to sandwich the daisy heads.

Add a small silver dot to each of the daisy heads. Add two oblong dots to either side of the daisy head using the illustration as a guide. These dots are from stickers and are the shapes left behind when the positive image is removed. For example the small dots might be from the centre of a small letter 'o'.

Add a silver 'Just a Note' sticker in the centre.

Product availability

We regret that we are unable to advise the reader of a source of supply for the materials used in the projects on the Card Making Inspirations web site.

The layouts and techniques used in these projects are timeless. However, products such as stamps, stickers and patterned papers are quickly discontinued to be replaced by new items. When this happens we suggest that there is a lot of satisfaction in finding an alternative product that suits the design.
