Today I have this strips card up on the Scrapbook Adhesives Blog. If you're like me, you have lots of scraps that you just can't bear to throw away but don't know what to do with them. I had these pretty strips laying around and decided to make a strips background for my card. My strips are all the same size, but they don't have to be, just let your creativity flow!
To make my card I cut white cardstock to 4" x 5 1/4" and die-cut a circle in the upper center. Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/8" was placed on the back of the strips EXCEPT for the strips that go over the die-cut circle. These strips only had the Double-Sided Tape 1/8" placed on the sides so that if the strips get pushed down, they won't stick to the card base.
This panel will be popped up on the card, so 3D Foam Strips are placed on the back of the panel. Make sure the strips are close to the outer edge and closer to the circle, so it doesn't sag.
Remove the paper backing from the 3D Foam Strips. Before I popped it up, I decided to place 3D Micro Foam Squares Black on the back of the strips that go over the circle to make sure they wouldn't sag. Pop this up on a tan card, I used the same color as one of the strips.
Next the flower was stamped using layering stamps, then it was die-cut.
The flower was also popped up, 3D Foam Squares were placed on the back and a 3D Micro Foam Squares Black at the bottom of the stem. Pop this up to the left side of the circle.
Die-cut the Hello from gold card stock and the shadow from one of the colors of strips. Use the Dual Tip Glue Pen the glue these together. Also use the glue to glue the Hello to the card as shown. For the final touch, gold glitter enamel dots were placed on the bottom right of the card.
