Floating Card

Posted on February 23, 2022 by Josee

I’m not really sure what to call this so I thought maybe just say it’s a “Floating Card”. I added a clear Window Sheet to the front which kind of makes it look like the front layer is floating! I think the Otters in the Awesome Otters stamp set are so versatile and adorable!! You have 5 more days to be able to get this stamp set for free during Sale-A-Bration.

Open the card to adhere the window sheet on the inside with the Fine-Tip Glue Pen.

Dimensions

  • Thick Whisper White: 4 1/4″ x 11″, scored at 5 1/2″  and  2 3/4″ x 4 1/8″ Stitched Rectangle Die
  • Designer Paper: 4″ x 5 1/4″
  • Magenta Madness: 2 3/8″ x 3 3/4″ Stitched Rectangle Die
  • Window Sheet: 4 1/8″ x 5 3/8″

Directions

  1. Cut cardstock 4 1/4″ x 11 and use scoring blade on trimmer to score at 5 1/2″. (The scoring blade is easier to use as in this direction, we are scoring against the grain of the cardstock)
  2. Use the 3 3/4″ x 5 1/8″ Stitched Rectangle Die to cut out the front of the card.
  3. Open the card and place some Fine-Tip Glue around the edges of the cut out. Place the Window Sheet on top of the glue. (Tip: Work fairly quickly with the glue so that it does not dry before adding the window sheet)
  4. Adhere the Designer Paper and the Magenta Madness layers to the inside of the card.
  5. Adhere the Basic White cardstock to the front of the Window Sheet centering it with the Magenta Madness cardstock.
  6. Stamp the Otter on a piece of the white cardstock using Memento black ink. Colour with Stampin’ Blends then cut it out using Paper Snips.
  7. Use the large Scallop Layering Circle Die to cut out a piece of Magenta Madness cardstock. Use a piece to create the skirt.
  8. Use the Magenta Madness Stampin’ Blend to add polka dots to the skirt. Adhere the skirt to the Otter.
  9. Add the Otter to the card using Dimensionals, then use the Fine-Tip Glue Pen to add the Loose Flower Flourishes and the In Color Jewel.
  10. Stamp the greeting on a piece of Pool Party cardstock, then cut it out along with one more cloud using the Cloud Punch.
  11. Use a dauber to add ink to the edges of the clouds.
  12. Adhere the bottom cloud to the card using Stampin’ Seal and the top one using Dimensionals.
