Looking at the Windmill Fields Bundle, I recalled my mother’s Delft China collection, and was inspired to create today’s card. I knew that the In Good Taste Designer Paper had blue, patterned paper that would work for my design.

I began with a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″, layered with the first pattern of In Good Taste DSP, 4″ X 5 1/4″. The next layer is Basic White Cardstock,  3 1/2″ X 4 3/4″. The top layer is a second pattern of In Good Taste DSP, 3 3/8″ X 4 5/8. I cut a circle in this top layer to accommodate the windmill, using the second largest Layering Circles Die.

Next, I gave the circle a border using the largest, scalloped, Layering Circles Die, and the second largest Layering Circles Die, to cut the first Pattern of In Good Taste DSP.

After gluing the layers, I used Windmill Fields Dies to cut the windmill from a third pattern of In Good Taste Paper. I reinforced the blades with cardstock, and glued the windmill in place, leaving the blades free to lift.

The sentiment, “just because” is from the Ranunculus Romance Stamp Set, stamped in Misty Moonlight Ink, cut with a Floral Gallery Die, and attached with Mini Dimensionals.

Come back Tuesday to see a colorful, FUN FOLD card, with the windmill!
