Magical Meadow Slimline Card for HLS Die Challenge

Hi, Stampers!

A new Happy Little Stampers Die Challenge starts today, and the theme is always Anything Goes with Dies. I saw a slimline card recently and I decided to try to make one with the Magical Meadow stamp set and coordinating dies. The panels add some wonderful detail to this variation of a gatefold. And isn’t this paper beautiful?

Once you finish here, I hope you visit the HLS Die Design Team gallery for some great inspiration and play along!

My Secrets!

Let’s start with the card base…

• Firstly, I found this slimline tutorial HERE
• These are the Card Measurements for my card:
  • Card Base: 8″ x 8-1/2″ and scored at 2″ and 6″ on the 8″ side. DSP for the gatefold panels: 1-7/8″ x 8-3/8″ (2)
  • Panel #1 (Left side): Cardstock: 6-1/2″ x 3″ and DSP: 6-3/8″ x 2-7/8″
  • Panel #2 (Right side): Cardstock: 3″ x 4″ and DSP: 2-7/8″ x 3-7/8″
  • Inside Panel: Cardstock: 8-3/8″ x 3-3/4″ and white cardstock: 8-1/4″ x 3-5/8″

And now, the fun part!

• Once that was done, the rest of the card was super fast and very easy!
• Firstly, I stamped the sentiment from the Magical Meadow stamp set in Pretty Peacock ink and cut it out with a Deckled Circle die. Then, I cut Moody Mauve cardstock with the 2-1/4″ Circle Punch and layered it underneath the sentiment.
• After that, I stamped the leaves in Pretty Peacock and Shaded Spruce inks, cut them out with their coordinating dies, and glued them to the panel before popping up the sentiment on top.
