17 Jul

Hello, lovely ladies, 

Welcome back. My Today’s card for the Casually Crafting Design Team Blog Hop. The purpose of this hop is mainly for beginners and Casual Crafters with limited products. 

This month it’s a Sketch Challenge.   

Colours: Basic White, Basic Black and, Crushed Curry.

I used the Stamp set Love of Leaves for the sentiment.

If you are interested in any of the Stampin’ Up! products that I used here, they will be available at my Online Store.

Here is my card for today’s card.

Sketch for today’s challenge.
  • Base Card Basic Black- 10.5 cm by 29.7 cm scored @14.9cm 
  • Layer 1: Crushed Curry: 10 cm by 14.4cm – 2 pieces ( 1 for Inside )
  • Layer 2: Basic White: 9.8 cm by 14.2 cm – 2 Pieces ( 1 for Inside )
  • Layer 3: Pattern Party Designer Series Paper – 7.5 cm by 13 cm 
  • Layer 4: Border to attach at the end – 2 cm by 13.5 cm 
  • Layer 5: Basic White: 6 cm by 7.5 cm 
  • Fussy cut the flowers from the Pattern Party Designer Series Paper.
  • Stamped the sentiment in Basic Black Cardstock using VersaMark Inkpad, used the White embossing powder, and then used the heat tool to melt the powder. 
  • Attach the sentiment using Stampin’Dimensional and add a small piece of Basic Gray Cardstock behind the black idea.
  • Splatter some of the black Stampin’ Ink and Clear Wink of Stella in the background.
  • Attached are the images and the ribbons to the front of the card using stampin’ dimensional and mini glue dots.

Welcome to another Be Inspired Blog Hop! 🤎 This mo Welcome to another Be Inspired Blog Hop! 🤎
This month, our theme is Die-Cutting, and I decided to highlight trees in my card design.

For my card base, I used Basic Gray, and I sponged the first layer with Blueberry Bushel to create depth and a lovely background for the colourful trees.
 I watercoloured the cardstock before die cutting. I love how this adds a unique touch and brings variation to each tree in colours.
Make sure you check out all the other Design Team projects below-you’ll get so many lovely ideas!

Hello lovely crafty friends, It’s time for anothe Hello lovely crafty friends,

It’s time for another Hop Abroad Insta Hop! 
This month our theme is Fall / Thank You Cards, and for my card I wanted to play with warm colours, lots of layers and a little bit of texture.
I really enjoy making cards like this, where you can keep looking and notice all the little details. I added the embossed background, foliage, ribbon and a few embellishments to give the card some dimension.
