Painted Blooms and Painted Petals

My first love out of the Occasions catalog was this coordinating designer paper collection and stamp set – Painted Blooms and Painted Petals.  I guess I am all ready to look ahead to spring!  I wanted to use a few patterns, so I thought a step card would work well, and I made it vertical so there would be plenty of room for those long stems.

This design allows space for a 4″ square of Whisper White inside for a message.  We have done these step cards before (here) and you can modify dimensions on any of them to suit your needs.  This card starts from a 4 1/4″ x 11″ piece of cardstock, and I have copied my notes for the dimensions below.

The important thing is to cut the line indicated with the squiggly arrow first.  Then you can easily score to it.


If you are making a card with these dimensions, here are sizes for the mat pieces:

Left Side CS 1 5/8″ x 4 1/4″,  White 1 1/2″ x 4 1/8″

Right Side CS 2 1/8″ x 4 1/8″, designer paper 2″ x 4″

Bottom CS 3/4″ x 4″, designer paper 5/8″ x 3 7/8″

Have a great day!
