Gallery Blooms Window Pane Card

If you have a gorgeous piece of printed paper, it’s fun to make a “window pane” style of card. This means that you take a piece of paper, and slice it into 3 even strips with the print continuing over onto each strip. It’s like you’re looking through a window, with the panes separating the scene.

The Beautiful Gallery Designer Series Paper (DSP) by Stampin’ Up! has some really pretty prints in it that are PERFECT for this style of card. Really, just pick ANY type of printed “scene,” and it will work beautifully for this style of card layout.

We started with an 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ piece of Mossy Meadow cardstock, folded in half, for the card base. Layered on top of that is a piece of Basic Beige cardstock, measuring 4″ x 5-1/4″. Then, finally, the 3 panels are layered on the top.

The DSP pieces are each 1-1/2″ x 3-3/4″, and they are layered onto Early Espresso strips that measure 1-5/8″ x 3-7/8″.

Wrapped around the card is some of the beautiful Gold Striped Mesh Ribbon, and the shiny Flower Accents gems are PERFECT for this card.

Stamped onto the inside of the card is one of the flowers from the stamp set, using Early Espresso ink, and colored in with Mossy Meadow, Darling Duckling, and Ivory Stampin’ Blends markers. And finally, the sentiment is from the Perfectly Pears stamp set, because the Gallery Blooms set doesn’t have any sentiments included. This sentiment was stamped onto a tiny 1/2″ wide scrap of Basic Beige cardstock, and trimmed on the edges at a slant.
