Stampin Up:  Bloom with Hope 

I wanted to make a fabulous card for my 

beloved.  His birthday was on Tuesday. 

So Monday I was trying to concentrate,

and I just kept getting phone calls, 

This looked like a slim line card sketch to me.  So that is 

what I intended to make. However, I made a smaller 

slimline so it would fit in those size 7 envelopes.  

Any ways, with all the distractions,  And my wandering 

mind, I wrote the measurements down.  It cracks my 

husband up because of how I write them.    I told 

him, between not being able to see the lines well

on my ruler, and not wanting to count to the 16th

I just went with this.  It works best for me.  My own 

little code for measuring.   

I also wrote it down so if you want to make a 

smaller slimline card you now have some

measurements.   You can also do a 6x6  scored

at 3, but I didn't like that as much it left a little too

much wiggle room in the envelope for my liking.  

I used glossy accents and then 

sprinkled on the icecream toppings.  They set up 

nicely that way.   That DSP reminds me of a circus

or something, it's a bit much, but it seemed happy

for a card.   Anyways, 51 looks good on my darling. 

I included a little snapshot of him as he was making

his way to my craft room. 

And yes that is painter's tape on the floor yet.   

He is still painting for me.   Bless his heart.
