Hello AI friends!
Today is my first day to share a card with you! As I was thinking about which stamps to use, I found this AI set called His & Hers Gardening which is exclusively sold in Michael's stores. The sentiment was perfect for my first post today! It reads "I'm so excited I wet my plants!"
I have to admit, though, that I am a terrible gardener! I do not have a green thumb (unless I'm getting inky!) LOL.
You can see below that I punched a decorative edge on the BACK of my card. I thought I would take a few pics along the way to show you how easy it is to do.
Before I get to the card design, though, check out how cute the gardener is close up! I paper pieced her apron to match the card.
And here is a side view showing the gardener, flower pots, and sentiment circle popped up.
Now here's a little picture tutorial to help you make the card base. I forgot to mention that you should punch the corner first.
next...
and finally...
You're done!
Thanks for stopping by...I hope you enjoyed my first card for AI!
