Touch of Ink Best Wishes

Greetings everyone. I hope everyone is finding some time for crafting these days. 

I have been busy making several different types of cards. 

This card is for the Tic Tac Toe challenge, and I wanted to use it for my Zoom meeting with friends.

It is for one of my besties birthday. 

I had a lot of fun making it, it is cased after watching a video with Connie Stewart who made it.

It is a fun different kind of card. 

It took me several times before I could get it just the way I wanted it, but was happy with the outcome.

She called it a Floating card. 

I made my card using the Highland Heather cardstock cut at 5 1/2 x 8 1/2, scored at 4 1/4.

I cut the square in the upper center of the card using the Layering Squares Framelits Dies, and then used Misty Moonlight cardstock and one scalloped edged and a smaller straight edge die to make the frame. 

I then used the 3rd smaller die to cut the white cardstock that will hang.

You need 2 frames and 2 white squares. 

I then stamped the flower images on the front edges of the open square on the card base.

I chose not to use the 2nd step stamp to fill it in. 

I then stamped the Best Wishes and the flower outlines using Misty Moonlight ink on the first white square and did do the 2nd step stamping on those flowers using Highland Heather ink. 

On the 2nd white square I stamped the butterfly image using the 2 step method, the outline is done with Misty Moonlight ink. (This is on the reverse side of the Best Wishes square, but I forgot to take a picture of it).

I then used a piece of white twine and separated a small piece out of it and glued it to the front of card above and below the window. After that I attached the highland heather frame with dimensionals.

I then attached the Best Wishes white cardstock to the front of the twine, and the butterfly to the back of the twine and adhered them together. 

The last step was to glue the 2nd frame on the inside of the card's open square.

I added a white piece of cardstock cut to 4 x 5 1/4 and decorated the 4 corners with the same flower stamp.

Wooo! Lot of directions, but is easier than it sounds.
