The Detailed Floral Thinlits Dies have been sitting on my table calling my name. I decided to use them to create a card for my sister-in-law who has had some health issues.
This die looks intimidating but it is really easy to use. In addition to the die, I also broke out my new Big Shot Platform. When it is used in combination with the Precision Base Plate cutting these intricate dies is a piece of cake! No wax paper needed! And, if you forget the sandwich to use with it, just look at page 194 in the Stampin' Up! 2016 – 2017 Annual Catalog because the correct sandwich is pictured there for our convenience.
After creating the pocket from Night of Navy Cardstock, I turned to making the slider card for the inside. The lined paper found in the Floral Boutique Designer Series Paper Pack was perfect paper to stamp my sentiment found in the Hostess Set Time of Year using Night of Navy Ink. I created a tab to pull the card out by punching a small circle, also from Night of Navy Cardstock. Fold it in half and attach to the card.
The card closure is created by wrapping a length of Watermelon Wonder 5/8" Mini Striped Ribbon around the card and tying it in a bow. It does not need to be opened in order to slide the card out of the pocket.

Hmm!I was thinking I would wait on this, maybe I wouldn’t’ get it. In true Ginger fashion you enticed me ad I’m thinking I need it RIGHT NOW! I love your card an d so will your Sister-in-Law.
Not only is it fun – it is so pretty! I like the idea of the interaction and not just a plain old card. Fun! The ribbon is such a fun touch to brighten her day. I really love the inside card part with the stripes that look hand drawn and the sentiment. So pretty with the lacy floral thinlit. This card will brighten her spirits for sure! I know I love it!
