I have some shimmer cardstock that is not wide enough to create the A2 sized card so I design the panel going across the card to the correct width and now it wonÂ’t move around in the envelope during its travel through the mail system. I borrowed the concept of the over hang from a layout presented for the Sketch Challenge from Dawn Mercedes a while back.
After punching the edge I also scored two lines at the panel top and above the punched design before attaching the designer brads. I stamped the sentiment using StazOn ink and dry embossed across the top of the card base.
I stamped the image with Memento Tuxedo Black and colored with Copic markers, itÂ’s a simple image to color and cut out. I attached the cardinal to the card with foam pop dots.
