- Prepare a standard card base from Very Vanilla textured card stock and score at the top.
- Layer with textured Rich Razzleberry card stock.
- Cut a 3-1/8″ x 3-1/8″ square of Razzleberry Lemonade Designer Series Paper. (I selected the Melon Mambo “Small Squares” pattern.)
- Add a snippet of Melon Mambo Polka-Dot Grosgrain Ribbon. (Tip: Since this versatile ribbon is two sided—polka dots on one side and plain on the other—a Mini Glue Dot was used to keep the Polka-Dot side showing.)
- Punch two strips of Melon Mambo card stock with the Scallop Edge Punch and adhere to opposite edges of the pattern paper.
- Ink a section of the “Floral Vine” image from the Thoughts and Prayers stamp set using Always Artichoke and Rich Razzleberry Stampin‘ Write Markers and stamp onto Very Vanilla card stock. Mat onto Melon Mambo, and adhere to the pattern paper base. The image block is now complete!
- Position and adhere the image block to the card base.
- Ink the “For You” sentiment from the Great Friend stamp set with Melon Mambo. Stamp onto Very Vanilla. Punch with the Large Oval Punch and adhere with Stampin‘ Dimensionals to a Bermuda Bay Scallop Oval. Position and adhere to the card base.
- For a touch of bling, three Pink Circle Fire Brads are added. Notice how well the Pink coordinates with the Melon Mambo and draws the eye to the gorgeous texture of the Rich Razzleberry card stock.
