Card Crop Batch #4

Carla's 4th Card:

For this card, I used one the card bases that came with the kit. It measures 5 1/2 x 4 1/2.

I cut a piece of the red pp 3 1/2 x 5 1/2. I stitched it around on my sewing machine. I used the baker's twine and did a couple loops around the red pp. Then, adhered to my card base. Just below the red pp, I added a strip of ribbon.
Finished this one off with a rub-on sentiment and a layered flower.

Fold it over...stand it up!

Inside...

The base for this one is 5.5 x 10.75. Finished card is still 4.25 x 5.5.

Score cardstock at 4" from one end and 2.5 from the other. Fold in leaving shorter end for the outside of card. (see picture!)

Using coordinating patterned paper and scrap coordinating cardstock place paper on card base. For some added texture I dry embossed the solid cardstock.

I used a spellbinder to cut the 'oval' on the front of the card but you could use anything! I've seen these done with circles, squares...etc. Add a brad to the inside so the card will 'catch' and stand! Add sentiments as you like!
