Good Friends are Like Thighs Card
By Gail Booth
Designer Tip: Layer your pens when coloring to create different colors.
- Place your card with the fold on the top. Cut to 5" square. Mat a 4 5/8" square of green cardstock on White Truffle black houndstooth with a 1/16" border and center on your card.
- Stamp the girlfriend image on a 4 1/8"x3 1/4" white cardstock with Tuxedo Black ink. Use various Spectrum Noir pens to color the stamped image. Use Smooch® and Smooch® Glitz to color the areas as shown; let dry. Mat the cardstock on White Truffle houndstooth with a 1/16" border and foam tape 1/4" from the bottom edge of the green panel. Stamp "Good friends..." on a 3 1/2"x3/4" white cardstock with VersaMark and emboss with black. Ink the edges black and mat on green with a 1/16" border. Punch a hole in each end and set aside.
- Cut a 6" long strip of the White Truffle lace border paper and cut along the lace edge. Glue a 6"x1/4" White Truffle houndstooth paper on the top edge of the lace and foam tape the lace along the top of the card, folding the ends under the matted green cardstock. Use Smooch® Glitz all over the lace and houndstooth papers and let dry. Cut two 5" lengths of ribbon and tuck under the folded lace ends, leaving loose.
- Thread two 5" lengths of White Truffle stitched grosgrain ribbon through the holes on the text label and glue underneath. Foam tape the label as shown and tie the ribbons at each end into bows.
