TUESDAY IS FOR TECHNIQUES & TIPS

Today I am creating with layers and focal points.

I cut two identical panels of designer series paper.

A length of Linen Thread was wrapped around one of the DSP panels and tied off.

The first panel was then adhered to a Lost Lagoon cardbase.

Then I cut two 3/4″ outer strips and one 1″ inner strip. These strips had dimensionals added before being positioned over the base DSP panel.

I cut a 2″ wide piece of Lost Lagoon card and used the Alphabet a la Mode dies to create the ‘you & me’ greeting.

This die cut panel then had dimensionals added before attaching a Wild Wheat DSP panel. I positioned the die cut panel on the card front and marked where to cut the angled ends.

The greeting panel was adhered to the card front.

I took some of the white Neutral Matte Dots and coloured them with the dark Lost Lagoon Stampin’ Blends pen.

The card insert and back of the envelope had DSP added to them.

Tomorrow I have another card to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.

MEMORY KEEPING CATCH UP

Today is Tuesday and I am a day late sharing my memory keeping layout.

This week I am featuring the Everyday You & Me Designer Series Paper & Sticker Sheet (as well as the reitred Scrapbooking Workshop Kit).

These are the layouts suggested in the kit.

I created my own double page layout for this post.

The two pages align across the ‘centre’.

These are super, simple layouts but suitable for all sorts of occasions.

Tomorrow I have a card to share.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.

FRIDAY IS FABULOUS & ALL ABOUT THE FUNFOLD CARD

Today’s funfold card was inspired by Connie Stewart from SimplySimpleStamping. Thank you so much Connie for your inspiration.

Connie calls this a Diagonal Double Pocket Card.

I started with a Real Red Two-tone 12″x 12″ sheet of card and used Connie’s measurements. At some stage, over this weekend, I plan to convert it to ‘Australian’ measurments.

The card has two staggered pockets that are trimmed with Mossy Meadow card.

Each pocket has a card insert – the front card is a portrait tent-fold card and the back card is a single piece of Secret Sea with a panel of Basic White card.

The card front was embellished with several layers of the greeting ‘joy’ and gold sequins from the Traditional Sparkling Sequins.

The front card has been designed to hold a gift card, perfect for a combined Christmas card and gift.

For the card insert, I added a layered panel of Secret Sea and Basic White. I also added one of the Christmas greetings from the Greetings For You Mix & Match Ephemera Pack.

I think that I will take a break form Christmas next week and find something else wonderful to use in my projects.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.
