April Fools’ Day is usually full of tricks, giggles, and a few “gotcha!” moments—but let’s be honest… the real crafty trick is turning paper into something that makes someone smile. And this card? It’s no joke—it’s petal-perfect. 🙂 I know…. corny but I couldn’t resist..
With its soft florals, warm golden tones, and just a touch of sparkle, this design proves that the best kind of fooling around happens at your craft table. No pranks here—just layers of lovely, a sprinkle of shimmer, and a sentiment that says “Just thinking of you”… no tricks attached!
This card is a sweet reminder that handmade kindness never goes out of style. And if someone thinks you spent hours making it? Well… let’s just say we won’t correct them. 😉
To Create This Card:
- Use the Stitched Basket Weave Coverplate Die by Pinkfresh Studio on an A2 sized panel to create the card front layer and adhere to an A2 card front.
- Use the largest two dies of the Double Stiched Frame Die Set by Pinkfresh Studio to create three frames – one in Champagne Glitter card stock and two in white card stock. Save the inner panels for other projects. Adhere the two white frames to the back of the glitter frame. Use one of the white panels to die cut using the Stitched Basket Coverplate Die.
- Lightly ink the die cut panel.
- Add the stacked frame to the card front using foam tape and add the inked die cut to the center of the frame.
- Heat emboss the Dreamy Florals image using the hot foil plate in Champagne Fold fold.
- Color the foiled image as desired using the coordinating stencils and cut using the Dreamy Florals die set.
- Arrange the floral die cuts on the card front.
- Use black ink and the Heartfelt Chapters stamp set to ink and die cut the sentiment. Add to the card front.
- Finish by adding Champagne Glitter Drops by Pinkfresh Studio
