Hello, hello, crafty friends- I am playing along with Tuesday Morning Sketches today.
I started with a blue layer of card stock, I then die-cut a
piece of white cardstock with a background die-cut.
I die-cut two small rectangular pieces from patterned cardstock and I die-cut a larger rectangle from vellum for the middle panel.
I used a privet branch I die-cut and added foam tape behind the leaves, I used those leaves to hide the glue holding down the vellum panel.
Supplies: White and blue cardstock, Designer Paper- Paper
Rose, Simon Says Stamp-Detail Pincushion Plate, Privet Branch, gems
I tried out some Hammermill Coverstock for this card, it is 100lb weight and I have seen a number of people say they love it for ink blending... I will try that soon, but for this card I used it for the card base, the die-cut panel and for the privet branch, I also used it to print out the sentiment. I am pretty happy so far.
Did you know: It is believed that around 80% of Earth's gold is still buried underground.
Hello, Hello, craft peeps. My love of designer papers won out for this card and I used a quick and easy layout. When in doubt layer your panels.
I am in this place where I just want to repeat the cards I made with washi tape with different tapes, but I also want to do something different, so that is messing with my crafty mojo a little. I have some cards I need to get into the mail so I need to get it together.
I started by creating the panels, I knew which papers I wanted to work with, and I started out with three different panels but I just could not make the smallest one work for me. I layered each panel with some black cardstock.
I stamped and die-cut the sentiment, and die-cut the leafy branch adding foam tape to both. I finished with black Nuvo drops.
Supplies: White and black cardstock, Designer Paper - Carta Bella, Memory Box - Signature Greeting, Poppy Stamps - Lorelai Leaf, Nuvo drops.
Good Morning and Merry Monday crafty crew. I have one of those quick and easy cards to share. I am not moosing around, the layout is simple, and the paper did all the work.
I cut a panel of designer paper that has the trees on it, the moose and sentiment were on the same panel. I cut that section out, put the twine in behind then added a layer of foam tape behind the cut-out piece to pop it up.
I added a layer of black cardstock to the panel for a small frame. I finished with some half pearls.
Good Morning - I am playing along with this week's Tuesday Morning Sketches. I started with some patterned papers and added them to a black cardstock panel. I die-cut the largest heart from some woodgrain cardstock.
I heat embossed the sentiment, using white embossing powder on black cardstock doing that twice to get a nice solid sentiment. I then die-cut it using a coordinating die-cut set.
I die cut a series of smaller hearts from red mirror and textured cardstocks. I added them using some foam tape. I added some black gems and added the whole panel to a card base made of the same woodgrain cardstock as the large heart.
Happy Friday out there. I used one of my go-to sketches for today's card. It is super easy, lemon squeezy.
I cut out a bottom panel of designer paper, then layered it up from there. The papers I used are from a 6x8 paper pad so I used a coordinating page and cut a second panel that I added a layer of foam tape.
I added a little bit of shimmer to the insides of the flowers using a Gelly Roller pen. I die-cut a butterfly and added a little shimmer to the wingtips and gems for the body.
I had a sentiment strip already cut on my desk so I added some foam tape to adhere it.
