Happy New Year, Maja Design friends! It’s Cathy here today and I’m so happy to be sharing a card with you that I have created using papers from the Vintage Spring Basics Collection. I love creating cards for all occasions. This is a double zig zag card that is generic at the moment but can be personalised at later date simply by stamping a sentiment when the occasion arises.
The card is closed by the use of a simple band. I have used a Stampin’ Up! border punch and embellished it with some Green Tara flowers and a lovely Prima Rose. I have also used Memory Box Amira Flourish die to add some elegance.
Here is the inside of the card. It has a series of panels and you can see that I have embellished some. They need to be flat so that the card can close.
The centre panel lifts up where you can record your message and add your stamped sentiment. I edged the outside with some Kaisercraft White Pearls.
All of my papers are inked with Antique Linen Distress Ink. Here I added some Green Tara roses and I used a Martha Stewart leaf punch to create these leaves which I inked with some Prima Dark Bark chalk ink. I also added a Cheery Lynn butterfly and added some Kaisercraft blush pearls. I also used Peaceful Butterfly Wings from Memory Box along with one of my favourite dies Elegant Scrollwork.
I used Heartfelt Creations Timeless Armour dies to create the lattice heart and added used some of my scraps to create this flower. I used my EK Success daisy punches and added a pearl centre.
The image of the girl is so adorable! I played around with one of the Spellbinders Heirloom Legacy dies and cut away the parts that I needed to frame her.

This is absolutely beautiful. I would love to get detailed instructions on how to construct and put together this phenomenal card. Thanks.
Stunning card, all the cards are stunning. All the paper is absolutely beautiful!
Cathy this is so delicate and beautiful. I just love how you’ve used the die cut sheet. The little girl is in fact one of Marie’s relatives. Her grandmother if I remember correctly.
