15 November 2020

15 Nov

Hello Lovely Ladies, 

Welcome to My Blog! 
My today’s card for Fab Friday 201 sketch challenge. 
I used Stampin’ Up! ‘ Timeless tropical ‘ Stamp set with the co-ordinating ‘ In the Tropics Dies’ and the  Plaid Tidings Designer Series Paper.

All the Stampin’ Up! products which I used here are available at my Online Store. 
Here’s the sketch used for today’s Challenge. You can also take part in this fun Challenge #FabFri201.

I used Smoky Slate as my base card followed by the layers, Smoky Slate, Whisper White , Designer Series Paper, Basic Black, Whisper White and Smoky Slate. 

Measurements in Metric :

  • Base Card Smoky Slate A4 Card Stock :  27.8 cm by 10.5 cm (Cut at half on 10.5 cm on 21cm side , scored and folded at half on 14.9 cm )
  • First layer Smoky Slate  : 10 cm by 14.4 cm ( embossed using Absolutely Argyle 3D Folder)
  • Second layer : Whisper White 9 cm 13.4 cm 
  • Third layer Plaid Tidings Designer Series Paper : 8.7 cm by 13.1 cm 
  • Fourth Layer Basic Black  : 2 cm by 9.5 cm 
  • Fifth layer Whisper White : 2 cm by 14.4 cm 
  • Sixth Layer Smoky Slate : 9 cm by 14.4cm 
  • Basic Black : 10 cm by 14.4 cm ( Inside )
  • Whisper White: 9.7 cm by 14.1 cm ( Inside )
  • Scrap pieces of Basic Black, Real Red to stamp the sentiments and the image. 

Measurements in Imperial: ( Letter Size card only )

  • Base Card Very Vanilla  : 8.5 ” By 11″  (Cut at half on 5 .5″, scored and folded at half on 4 1/4″  )
  • First layer Smoky Slate : 4 ” by 5 1/4″  
  • Second layer: 3 1/2″ by 4 3/4″
  • Third layer Plaid Tidings Designer Series Paper: 3 3/8 ”  by 4 5/8 “
  • Fourth Layer Basic Black : 3/4 ” by 3 3/4 “
  • Fifth layer Whisper White : 3/4 by 5 1/2 ”

  • Whisper White: 3 7/8″ by 5 1/8″ ( inside )
  • Scrap pieces of Basic Black, Real Red to stamp the sentiments and the image. 

I used Absolutely Argyle embossing folder for Smoky Slate first layer and for the centre piece of Smoky Slate I used Tasteful Textile embossing folder. 

I stamped the image in basic Black Cardstock using Versamark Ink pad and heat embossed it using White Stampin’ Emboss powder. 

Stamped the Sentiment in Real Red Cardstock using Versamark and White Stampin’ Emboss powder. For the background I Splatter some of the Clear Wink of Stella and Frost White Shimmer Paint using brush to white spots on the background.
I used Linen thread and In Good Taste Elements. I decorated inside in juts by adding the Designer Series Paper.

Make it Masculine Today’s post is by the Piccadil Make it Masculine 
Today’s post is by the Piccadilli Players about masculine cards, and I wanted to create something a little different Masculine card with a vintage feel.

For this card, I used the Gears and Texture Bundle, which is a fantastic set for masculine projects. To create the background, I started with watercolor paper and blended Summer Splash, Pretty Peacock, Early Espresso, and Pecan Pie for a rich, aged look.

I love how the colours and texture came together to create a masculine card with a unique vintage style.
We have more inspiration using Masculine cards today. Let's see what Su @aromasandart created.

Today’s post is for the Be Inspired Design Team Bl Today’s post is for the Be Inspired Design Team Blog Hop. Every month we have a different theme, and this month it’s all about simple techniques you’ll use forever.
One technique I always go back to is splattering… I like to call it my little “splatter of happiness” 😊 You’ll see it in most of my cards, I just feel it adds that extra touch and makes both me and the person receiving it a little happier.
For this card, I used watercolours to colour the flowers. I actually got this set on OnStage2026 and didn’t use it there with blends, but when I came home I tried it with watercolours instead - and I really love how it turned out! 
Make sure you check out all the other Design Team projects below-you’ll get so many lovely ideas!
