STAND UP CARD

I watched a Ronda Wade Facebook live two days ago and was inspired to make a card using this card fold technique.

I thought the golfer from the CLUBHOUSE STAMP SET would be perfect for the centre panel of the stand up card.

I used one of the edge dies from the ORNATE LAYERS DIES to add the Night of Navy and Poppy Parade edges at the base of the card.

With my husband’s birthday looming, I can use this card and give him the golf ball gift box – the one I posted on March 3rd.

This card didn’t stand as well as I had hoped, so I trimmed some card from the back half of the card – it stands a little shorter than I would have liked. I have since made a few adjustments to the scoring and cutting measurements and now I have the ‘template’ spot on.

That’s the thing with crafting and creativity – there are no mistakes, just creative solutions!

What has been your best creative save?

Thanks for popping by … happy stamping.

RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS

During this unusual time, many people are doing wonderful acts of kindness for others.

I have been finding little treats and making gift boxes, ready to give to some of those wonderful individuals.

There is a range of bathroom products, that I have found at Coles and Woolworths, branded THANK YOU. They are perfect.

Wow – this enlarged image tells me that I need to change my blade.

Has anyone experienced a random act of kindness recently?

I’m looking forward to paying it forward – to be #sendingsunshine

YOU MEAN SO MUCH TO ME

I know that I can always find a sentiment that I want to use from one of my stamp sets. For this card I found what I wanted in the FOREVER BLOSSOMS stamp set.

This card has clear heat embossed flowers on the Night of Navy card stock and a fussy cut stem of flowers coloured with Stampin’ Blends.

I also coloured some Pearl Basic Jewels with the Blends.

What do you think?

Night of Navy is one of my favourite colours and it coordinates with so many of the colours from the colour families.

What is your favourite colour?
