I am so inspired and energized!! Tri-City Stampers met yesterday for a team meeting and WOW - talk about a fabulous group of talented, creative women! In addition to a bit of business talk, training, recognition, food, fun
and prizes, those who wished to, participated in a card swap, which I'm sharing with you today!
Each card features products from the 2018 Occasions &/or Sale-A-Bration catalogues. Be sure to read to the end to see how you can earn
FREE product!
Here's my card:
Our challenge was to make a 'non-standard' sized card. I started with an Island Indigo base measuring 4 1/4 square, then cut a layer of Lemon Lime Twist 4 x 4 and embossed it using my Scattered Sequins Dynamite Textured embossing folder. Before adhering the layer to the card, I added Silver Ribbon.
What I love about the Picture Perfect Birthday stamp set is that it has wonderful fonts for the sentiments and really fun images! How about that font? A winner, for sure! I stamped the greeting in Island Indigo onto Whisper White cardstock, then die cut it with my Stitched Shapes Framelit. Next, a layer of Lemon Lime Twist, then Island Indigo, both cut using dies from my Layering Circles Framelits. Once those three layers were adhered together, I added dimensionals to add, well, dimension to the card.
Did you notice the clear drops in this pic. They are a new product called Glitter & Epoxy Shapes, and yes, I am obsessed with them!
For the inside of the card, I cut a piece of Whisper White cardstock 4 x 4 inches, then using Island Indigo ink, stamped the greeting which is from Picture Perfect Birthday. The super fun sprinkles and stars, also from the same set, are stamped in Lemon Lime Twist ink.
I thought you might like to see a 'production' pic. Everything is stamped, die cut, embossed and ready for assembly.
I hope you enjoyed this card!
