Moral of the story - Don't hide the weaving as I did in the Seaside Spray cardstock



Apply 1/4" sticky strip to the left side of the horizontal strips
Apply 1/8" sticky strip from the 2" mark all the way to the end of the left side



Remove the 1/4" sticky strip only. If you look carefully at the graph paper, I lined up the card base along a 1/4" line.  Line up the bottom of the TOP strip 3/4" down from the top. Continue to add strips, placing the bottom of each strip at a 1/4" mark.


Helpful Tip
I pulled away the 1/8" sticky strip slightly before I lined up the strips.  Once aligned, I removed the remainder of the strip.


Remove the 1/4" sticky strip and weave in each strip before lining up and attaching. 

`
Follow the same steps as I stated in the horizontal strips, lining up each strip using the 1/4" graph lines.

My Fine Art Floral Designer Series Paper Tutorial is NOW AVAILABLE

My Fine Art Floral Designer Series Paper Tutorial is NOW AVAILABLE.

My tutorial will be FREE with you $60 or more Stampin' Up! order using my Hostess Code at the top right hand side of my blog during the month of January 2021. The tutorial is also available for purchase on January 15, 2021 for $9.95. 

To view sneak peeks of my 12 cards, click HERE.

 

I will email you the tutorial within 24 hours.


This Designer Series Paper uses more coordinating colors than listed and there are many colors you can substitute.  The coordinating colors listed are: Bumblebee, Flirty Flamingo, Merry Merlot, Mossy Meadow, Night of Navy, Petal Pink, Pool Party, Poppy Parade, Pumpkin Pie, So Saffron, Terracotta Tile and Whisper White.  Some of the substituted colors I used were Bravo Burgundy, Brilliant Blue, Dusty Durango, Crushed Curry, Fresh Fig, Hello Honey, More Mustard, Pretty Peacock and Tranquil Tide.

In my tutorial, I have created two different cards using the floral side of each of the six patterns.  I also have two different cards that have two variations. There are THREE Fun Fold cards, two of them I have never used on my blog.

Each card uses the Fine Art Floral Designer Series Paper.  I used other Stampin' Up! Products, which include the following dies: Art Gallery, Curvy, Stitched Rectangle and Stitched So Sweetly. I used various stamp sets which include: Art Gallery, Butterfly Gala, Quite Curvy along with other sentiment stamps that can easily be substituted for ones you own. I used many sentiment punches, that include: Banner Pick A Punch, Butterfly Duet, Itty Bitty Accents, Ovals and Tailored Tag. Most of these items can be substituted with ones you already have, I purposely kept that in mind as I designed each card.
