Fluttering Garden APPT March 2026 card

This card doesn’t take much time; the hardest part is cutting everything out. Once you make a Waterfall Card, you will be making more.

Stamp the 2 ⅝” x 3 ¹⁄₁₆”, 2 ⅝” x 2 ⁵⁄₁₆” & 2 ⅝” x 1 ⁹⁄₁₆” White Cardstock pieces with the tall flower stamp using Pool Party Ink (2 ⅝” is the top). Then adhere each of them to the corresponding Coastal Cabana Cardstock pieces & set aside. Adhere the cut envelope piece to the largest piece of Coastal Cabana Cardstock

Adhere cut kit card base to the 4 ¼” x 5 ½” Basic Gray Cardstock. Adhere the 1″ x 4″ gluing just the left to right edge ⅞” from the bottom of the card. Put scored 9″ x 2 ½” Basic Gray Cardstock through the slot created & adhere the bottom of the smallest scored section to that strip.

Adhere the tops of each stamped panel to the stepped section of the 9″ x 2 ½” Basic Gray Cardstock.

Adhere a hummingbird cut-out to each panel.

Punch a hole using the small circle from the Hole Punch Assortment & tie Gray Granite Variegated Trim through hole

Embellish with gems from the kit.
