Hanging Plant Fold Flap Slimline

Hello! I haven't done a Fold Flap Slimline card in awhile, so that is what I did for today's card. I dug out my (retired) Hanging Plant die set and made several of them up to have on hand for future cards. I had been eyeing a similar set at Stampin' Up but decided that this one is close enough and I really don't need 'more of the same' in my craft room. Hahaha, I say that now - but if that set ends up on the clearance rack, I just might jump all over it. Anyhow, I chose two of the hanging plant embellishments I had created and added them to this card.

The pretty braided rectangle is a die set by Pink Fresh Studio (linked below) created for Mini Slimline cards. It was also the perfect size to decorate the front of my Slimline!


I added more of 'That Paper' inside ... it was a gift from a friend in the USA, and my favourite colours.  The sentiment circle is hidden when the card is closed and there is room on the white panel to sign my name when I go to send the card.


Glossy accents was added to the pot inside the card, so it looks more like a ceramic pot. 😊


... one more look ...


EDITED TO ADD:  To create the card, cut your card stock 7 x 8.5". With the 7" side across the top, score at 1.25 and 3.5". The first score creates the flap that you fold to the front of your card. You can leave it as is and decorate all the panels, but I generally adhere my flap to the front of my card at the top and bottom with thin foam tape.
