I mounted the 3 girls from the Hey Girlfriend set on one block, inked it in Memento Black ink and stamped it twice on my Thick Basic White Cardstock. Then I selected 6 pairs of Stampin’ Blends markers for my rainbow!

After finishing my slimline card, I thought it needed just one more small touch, so I used my Basic Black Stampin’ Write marker to draw a border around the perimeter. I think it was the perfect touch!

 

Tip! use a straight edge and a Basic Black Stampin' Write marker to draw a border on your handmade card! www.pattystamps.com

Slimline Card Tip:  first measure your envelope, and subtract about 1/4″ and use that for your cardstock size.  My Poppy Parade card base measures 8″ x 9″.  The 8″ side is scored at 4″ (in half).  The white panel is 3-3/4″ x 8-3/4″. You can of course adjust that to any size to fit any envelope you have.

After I posted the paper piecing Hey Girlfriend card, I received so many kind emails and comments so I decided why not create a rainbow card with paper piecing!! I used the Brights 6×6 Paper Stack and paper piecing, to create this Girlfriends sllmline card!!  Watch the video below to get all the details!!

How to do Paper Piecing:

Stamp image onto patterned paper and fussy cut with Paper Snips.  Color skin and hair with Stampin’ Blends on card, then add paper dress with liquid glue.

  1. Hi Patty, my tip for around the hands with the paper blends is to go back in with the coordinating Blends and fill in the white area.
