Hello and welcome to my blog
The card I’m sharing today is my entry for this week’s Global Design Project which is a color challenge – Granny Apple Green, Bumble Bee and Calypso Coral – two colors from the Brights collection plus one of the new In-Colors! The Design Team have created some gorgeous projects to inspire us.
I decided to make an elegant thank you card and my intention was to keep it simple ….. but I actually ended up using a lot of different sets!
The card base is Thick Whisper white cut @ 10.5cm x 29.6cm scored at 14.8cm to create a top folding card. The next layer is cut @ 10.2cm x 14.5cm and embossed with the Scripty 3D embossing folder. I do love white on white and embossing, for me, always adds a lot to any project.
I stamped three of the images from the Forever Fern stamp set on a quarter sheet of A4 whisper white card using Granny Apple Green and Calypso Coral inks and die cut using the co-ordinating Forever Flourishing dies. From the same piece of card I die cut one of the gorgeous frames from the Ornate Layers dies and stamped two of the smaller sentiments from the Ornate Thanks stamp set on that in Calypso Coral before trimming in half with my mini cutter. On a small piece of Bumble Bee card cut @ 3cm x 15cm I stamped the large sentiment from the Ornate Thanks stamp set in Calypso Coral and die cut using another frame from the Ornate Frames dies. Basic rhinestones add a bit of bling to finish off the card
I’ve made a quick video so you can see how easily and quickly this card came together.
I also made a second card using one of the Greenery embossing folders and added it to a Bumble Bee base – which one do you prefer?
As
always, thanks for stopping by and remember keep it crafty.
