Today’s tutorial is for a bamboo flat pearl caring card. Today the pearls and a tiny bow are used to add a little bling to a simple stamped card.

This design uses a selection of items that are retiring at the end of April, including Pear Pizzazz card, the Bamboo Beauty stamp set and White Glittered Organdy Ribbon. If these have sold out by the time you read this tutorial, then you can easily switch colour scheme and ribbon and use a different floral or leafy stamp set instead.

In the tutorial below, I take you step by step through creating the bamboo flat pearl caring card. I also have a supply list for purchasing anything you don’t already own.

Colour Combo

This colour combo mixes Pear Pizzazz, Old Olive and Mossy Meadow.

Bamboo flat pearl caring card

Start with an A6 portrait card of Old Olive. Cut a (3-3/4″ x 5-3/8″) card front layer of Pear Pizzazz card. Using Mossy Meadow ink, stamp the bamboo shoots from the Bamboo Beauty set next to each other. Stamp the sentiment from the set next to the base of the shoots and add the kanji symbols (meaning friendship) just below the sentiment. Adhere this stamped layer to a (3-7/8″ x 5-1/2″) card front layer of Mossy Meadow card. Adhere these layers direct to the card front. Tie a tiny bow of White Glittered Organdy Ribbon and add to the bamboo shoots with a mini glue dot. Finish by adding a trio of small Flat Adhesive-backed Pearls.

Bamboo flat pearl caring card insert

On the Basic White insert, using Mossy Meadow ink, stamp another sentiment from the Bamboo Beauty stamp set. Add a large bamboo stalk down the left hand side and the shoots in the lower right corner.

Thanks for stopping by.
