Spanner Card

Today’s card is a fun thank you card using the Silly Goose stamp set and Darling Details Dies.

To create a spanner card base simply slice strips on each side of the card front. These are 1 1/4″ wide, with a Garden Green matte that is 1″ x 5 1/4″ and then a piece of Delightfully Eclectic Designer Series Paper that is 3/4″ x 5″ on top of that. A 1″ x 5 1/2″ piece of window sheet spans the space between the strips so that they will pick up together.

The Silly Goose sits on the center panel which has a Garden Green matte that is 2 3/4″ x 4″ and has a layer of the Delightfully Eclectic DSP (the opposite side of the striped paper) that is 2 1/2″ x 3 3/4″. The center layer lifts up to reveal a greeting area.

Watch my Spanner Card Video Tutorial to see this card created.

A piece of the Darling Details Border Die (2 3/4″ when finished) was used to add a little fun element under the goose. It has a small piece of Wavy Ribbon threaded through the slots. The goose image has a bit of color added to the sign, beak and feet with Watercolor Pencils.
