Instructions:
1. First of all, run Mango Melody card base through Maps Etc. Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder using Big Shot. Set aside.
2. Trim three smaller cards out of Best Route Memories & More Card Pack so two pieces are ½” wide on long (4”) edge of the card and so one other pattern is ¾” wide. Using SNAIL adhere those on the Mango Melody scrap that is about 4-1/2” x 4” laying them down at an angle and making sure to leave a small gap between strips. Next, trim at an angle on one edge. Hold that piece down onto the larger Whisper White piece and mark it so you know how to trim the other end.
3. Holding that piece back down on the Whisper White align where you want the sentiment to go, ink with Blueberry Bushel and stamp. If you don’t adhere it first, you can always redo if your stamping goes awry. Once it looks right, adhere strip piece to Whisper White with SNAIL.
4. Using Gray Granite stamp road map image onto Gray Granite cardstock and punch out with 1-3/4” Circle Punch. Using 2” Circle, punch Mango Melody. Using 2-3/8” circle die, cut out a circle from the Blueberry Bushel Memories & More card (it is the one with a white circle in the center). Attach Gray Granite to Mango Melody with SNAIL and adhere a strip of Blueberry Bushel Washi Tape across top of Gray Granite. Make sure to wrap it around back. Using SNAIL adhere that piece to the larger Blueberry Bushel circle.
5. Stamp bicycles in Blueberry Bushel along the bottom of the 4” Whisper White scrap. Trim so that it’s about ½” wide. Using Paper Snips trim to create an arrow. Using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals, adhere to top of circle piece.
6. Adhere Whisper White larger piece to Blueberry Bushel base with SNAIL.
7. With Stampin’ Dimensionals, adhere the circle to the front of the card so it is over the three diagonal strips. Also with Dimensionals, add Blueberry Bushel to the card base.
8. Lastly, apply Best Route Enamel Shapes to left of the sentiment.
