–  1 @ approx. 3-1/2 circle, square, oval, other (label die), complimentary to the base or the same. I used a 2-1/2″ circle and feel it is a little small. I wouldn’t go over 3-1/2″ and it can be any shape or die cut. Clusters would be good, too.

Designer Series Paper (can be same design or different)
–  1 @ 3-1/2 Wide x 3-3/4 Tall

Completed this way, the white piece on the right lifts up for your message. If you prefer, you could just layer the DSP on the front and add a writing panel on the back, 4 x 3-3/4.

I made 2 cards. One is using the new Floral Spray 3D Embossing Folder. This card is vertical, but can also be horizontal. The second card is using the Scenic Coast DSP. Your embossed panels must line up exactly. Same if you use DSP.

Clue #1  Vertical/Portrait OR Horizontal/Landscape card, gather your supplies: 

Card Stock card base
–  1 @ 5-1/2 x 8-1/2, scored at 4-1/4 OR 4-1/4 x 11, scored at 5-1/2
–  2 @ 4 x 5-1/4, same color if embossing (Hint: Use 3 of these panels to create 2 cards)

Designer Series Paper 
–  2 @ 3-3/4 x 5, Must match the scene or pattern you are using, if you are not embossing.

White/Vanilla CS 
–  1 @ 4 x 5-1/4, inside writing panel, if needed
–  1 @ front of card sentiment 

Embellishments    small optional
– for embellishments, use something that goes along with your DSP. Embellishments are not needed, especially with scenic DSP.

Cut one piece of the embossed panel or DSP into strips. For something a little different, I cut this embossed panel from the right at 1/2″, 3/4″, 1/2″, 3/4″, 1/2″ and that leaves a 1″ piece. For my piece of DSP, I cut 1/2″ strips. On the embossed panels, use the 3 1/2″ strips adhered with dimensionals directly over the same pattern on the underneath piece. For the second card, use the other 3 pieces and adhere them with dimensionals over the same pattern on the underneath panel. I embossed the flower and fussy cut it to add to the front of my card.
