Measurements: Image panel – 1 11/16 x 2 5/16” plus 1/16 and 1/8” borders – this doesn’t include the out of the box image.
I kept the next two layers at the same level on the card, top – 1 5/16 x 2 ½” plus 3/32” border, 1 ¾ x 3 1/4” plus 3/32” border, cross panel 2 ¼” plus 3/32” border
Card size: 4.25
-Prismacolor pencils, baby oil and paper stumps were used to color the image using the Gamsol technique. Baby oil replaces the Gamsol/mineral spirits.
-The pearls are attached with Diamond Glaze (any lacquer product will work).
-Art Glitter adhesive was used to apply glitter to the yellow berries.
-Ink distressing was done on all Kraft layers.
--A2 sized envelope for the square card:
I always use an A2 sized envelope for my square cards so I don’t pay extra postage. I cut a piece of junk cardstock 4.25 x 5.5” and to make it easier to pull the card out of the envelope I punch a shape (usually a V/half square or Stampin Up photo corner punch) at the half way point of the top edge as long as embellishments aren’t directly underneath because this cardstock also acts as reinforcement/protection for embellishments as it goes through the sorting machines.
If you donÂ’t have a suitable punch just cut the V with scissors.
Dot some glue about ¼” from each edge and tuck it in the envelope so the glue sticks to the front of the envelope. Then the card tucks in between the envelope front and the cardstock and doesn’t shift around during travel.
