Special Card

Hi everyone,

 

Just wanted to share a card I recently made for a friend at work. 

 

She is getting married this year and it was her birthday so I have combined the two in the card I gave her.

 

I have used my favourite bride image from The Bride stamp set which unfortunately has retired on a very clean and simple layout. 

 

Her wedding theme is Black, White and Red, so I add a touch of red with the eyelet border punch. 

 

There is a single rhinestone in the brides hair and the image was added to the card with dimensionals.

 

Here’s my card….

 

 

 

 

 

Supplies:

Stamp set: For the Bride

Card: Basic Black, Real Red, Whisper White
Ink: Stazon

Accessories:  Eyelet Border Punch, Basic Rhinestones, Dimensionals, SNAIL Adhesive

 

 

 

 

 

A very quick card, simple layout but she loved it.

Clean and Simple Hello…

Hi everyone,

 

Do you wind creating clean and simple cards a challenge – I do so I am challenging myself to create more of them.

 

In this post I want to share with you a card I have created with clean and simple style in mind.

 

I found the current challenge at Simply Less is More, which is to create a card with three different greens.

 

I have created this card using cardstock of Always Artichoke with a layer of Whisper White.

 

I stamped the image from the My Friend Stamp set in Lucky Limeade and I have inked some of the Always Artichoke ink on the bottom of the imaged.  I stamped twice to get the shadow image.

 

The wonderful ‘hello’ image was stamped in Always Artichoke and the butterflies from the Beautiful Wings Embosslit Die are in Whisper White with a touch of Always Artichoke on the outside and a smaller Certainly Celery butterfly layered on top. 

 

Yep and the cannot miss the added ‘bling’.

 

Here’s my card…

 

 

 

 

Supplies:

Stamp set: My Friend

Card: Always Artichoke, Certainly Celery, Whisper White
Ink: Always Artichoke, Lucky Limeade

Accessories: Beautiful Wings Embosslit Die, Basic Rhinestones, Dimensionals, SNAIL Adhesive

 

 

 

 

I am happy with the end result and this was a quick card to create.
