Funky Geometric Card – To a wonderful friend Card

Hello lovelies,

I am in love with this card. Outside of it being absolutely adorable it is pretty easy to make. It takes a little time but we’ve got lots of that right now. The glitter cardstock adds all the drama i needed on this card but you can definitely choose to omit the glitter and use any colour combo you would like.

Here is what you will need:

  • ONE 4.25 by 5.5 in kraft coloured card base
  • ONE 4 by 5.25 inches yellow cardstock panel
  • ONE 3.75 x 5 inches white cardstock panel
  • FOUR 2 and 1/8 by 1.5 inches cardstock rectangles in four different colours
  • FOUR 1 by 1.5 inches cardstock rectangles in four different colors
  • ONE 3 by 1 inch white cardstock rectangle
  • heat gun
  • yellow embossing powder
  • versamark ink
  • stamp for sentiment

**Remember if you do not have a stamp or embossing tools you can always print your sentiment in yellow and still have a beautiful outcome.

Here are the instructions:

  1. Adhere yellow cardstock to kraft colored card base
  2. adhere white cardstock to Yellow cardstock ensuring that all panels are centered
  3. adhere smaller rectangle to the center of the larger rectangle. ensure you are using different colors for small and large rectangle. Do this for all four rectangles
  4. cut each rectangle into two diagonally from one end to the other to get a triangle
  5. apply foam tape to the back of each triangle. use a lot of foam tape to ensure that the triangle is well-supported
  6. choose two triangles of different colours and apply to card front to form a new rectangle
  7. stamp sentiment using versamark ink and emboss sentiment using yellow embossing powder. heat with heat gun to melt
  8. cut triangle shape at one end of rectangle to form a banner
  9. Mount Banner on foam tape and place on card as shown in picture
  10. your card is complete
