How To Create Patchwork On A Greeting Card

In the video, I share how to create Faux Patchwork on a greeting card. Also, I have some extra tips along the way. How to ink a single stamp using tree colors, frame an opening in the center of a card, and more. Come check out everything I share for yourself to create a fun greeting card.

Patchwork In Red, White, And Blue

The stamp set I used for this card is the Inked & Tiles. Note that there are NO dies that match this stamp set. If you dislike to hand-cut stamp images, I would recommend that you use a flower set that you do have matching dies. Here are some ideas for other stamps with long flowers: Sending Smiles, Quiet Medow, Color, and Contor, to name a few. You can also use a different element than flowers on the card. I am planning to do one with the Hey, Chuck.

I embossed the background using the Basic Embossing Folder for the red, white, and blue cards. The basic embossing folder is an Online Exclusive product. You can order below.

Measurement

Basic White 11 x 4-¼ score at 5-½, 2 x 5 for the flowers
Real Red 4 x 5-¼, 1-1/4 square
Blueberry Bushel 4 of ¼ x 4-¼, 1 x 1 square

For the daisy card, I added an extra layer to the background.

These red, white, and blue are perfect for a patriot holiday like today, the 4th of July. Happy 4th to you all!
