To create this card you’ll need:

• Gather Together Mat Pack
• Gather Together Stickers 
• 12×12 White Solid Cardstock or Blank Card Kit
• 12-inch Trimmer
• Tape Runner
• Foam Squares
• Black or Brown Dual-Tip Pen

Step 1: Use the 12-inch Trimmer to cut a piece of White Cardstock to measure 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″. Then, fold in half to create your card base. Or simply use a card base from the Blank Card Kit (that’s what we did!).

Step 2: Cut the 4-1/2″ x 6-1/2″ navy floral patterned mat from the Gather Together Mat Pack to measure 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″. Adhere to the card base.

Step 3: Cut the 4″ x 6″ Gather Together mat with the perforated card and floral cluster pattern to measure 3-1/2″ x 5-1/4″. Adhere on top of the navy floral mat.

Step 4: Adhere the “Gather” sticker to the center of the card, slightly angled up, using Foam Squares. Adhere a cluster of flower and leaves, some using Foam Squares for added dimension, and adhere the heart sticker underneath.

Step 5: Write your message inside using a Black or Brown Dual-Tip Pen.

And that’s it! Super quick, easy and stunning! What do you think? And who will you be making cards for today? Comment below!
