Pretty in Pink card with Michelle
Hi everyone,
I'm back to share my first project for the month and this time I have created a card using the Couture Creations Dot and Do kit [Couture 04] - well some of it.
If I'm not creating with a little purple [my favourite colour], my other preferred go to colour combination is pink, white and green. Such a fresh colour combination to play with.
I pulled this kit apart.
Then I decided to play a little with it.
I have made a standing square box shaped card using one of the layered blossoms.
I have also used the light pink and olive green card.
Cut a piece of white cardstock 4" x 12" and score at 3", 6", 9".
Cut a piece of white cardstock 1" x 4" and score lengthwise.
Adhere and join the card to make a stand up card.
To decorate and embellish the card ... cut two rectangles of pink cardstock and two rectangles of green cardstock 2 3/4" x 3 3/4".
Cut 6 small white cardstock rectangles 2 1/4" x 1 1/4" and shape one end to be like a tag shape shape. Score in 1" from the other end. Adhere two tags one either side and under each coloured cardstock rectangle and then adhere to white panel of each side of the card.
My mother in law gave me a special card many years ago with a typed up verse on the front.
It has always been special and so I retyped the verse, split it and used a verse on two of the sides of this card.
And a loving word to say,
I will not wait till I forget,
But say to you today.
Among the things I’m thankful for,
Are special people like you,
To make the world a brighter place,
That’s why I’m thinking of you.
Tucked in behind these tags it read ...
Just for you,
with love
Print off verse, ink around the edge of paper and adhere.
Cut twine and tie, but leave open loop and tuck under tags.
Adhere three pearls to three sides of the card.
and a close up of the front of the card ... each layer is joined together with large foam dots.

Until next time,
Happy creating everyone.
Michelle [aka Mrs Frizz]
