You're Beautiful In Every Way
Hi bloggers! For today's card I started with a piece of copy paper covered with a sticky adhesive sheet. I cut 1/2" strips of shades of green and blue and lined them up on the sticky sheet next to each other. I embossed a piece of white card with the Art Deco Flowers embossing folder, then added the striped card as my centre piece. I cut the Beautiful Bold Word die out of white card and added it across the striped card. I stamped the rest of the sentiment in two sections and cut them out with the tag die from the set. I added them with mounting foam around the Beautiful word die. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 1/2" x 7" in size. All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue. What a great idea for using up your off-cuts. I think I might try to use some patterned pieces alongside the plain stripes.

ReplyDeleteHi Sue, a different style of CAS card and I love the colours used, really bright and zingy. Not sure that I would trust myself to get the strips so perfectly straight though :-)
