Tropical Layers CASE

 

Welcome, todays card is a CASE from Mary Brown. You can see her card here.  When I saw her card I just knew I wanted to make it and here is my version.

 

I started with a basic white base and a black layer.  My die cuts are from the Tropical Layers dies and they are Bermuda Bay, granny apple green and pool party.  The strips of DSP is from the Sunshine & Rainbows which is Sale-a-bration freebie when you spend $90 or more.  Sale-a-bration in Australia ends on 16/3/22.  The sentiment is  cut out using the stitched so sweetly dies and the sentiment is from the artfully layered stamp set.

Technique Tuesday Mini cards blog hop

 


Welcome to Technique Tuesday blog hop hosted by The Crafty Collaborations.  We are focusing this time on mini card techniques and styles.  I thought the Memories and More cards would be perfect for this and so again have used the cards from the Heart & Home card & envelope pack as well as the card pack.  These packs make it easy to produce simple cards quickly.  



Included in the card pack are layers and stickers which I have used on the front of each card.


This card utilises the stamp set called Blessings of Home and is the perfect image for the front of my cards.  On this card it is stamped in night of navy.  Notice that my layer matches my envelope and looks really cool.


On this one I have used a card as a layer, and also cut up another card to add interest.  Again, have added the stamped flower from the blessings of Home stamp set.  The sentiment is a sticker from the card pack as is the bee.


I really loved this garden green card layer with the floral imprinted in white, very classy!  So I added a flower in garden green to complement.  The sentiment and bee are stickers from the card pack.





For my set of cards I created a box for them.  Instructions for the box are in my video below.

Crafty Challenge Blog Hop




Welcome crafty friends, today I am participating in my first Crafty Challenge blog hop from Crafty Collaborations which is a team of Stampin' Up! demonstrators from around the world.  This challenge uses a sketch, which makes it so much easier for creating when and helps get the creative juices flowing.



My project features products from the Heart & Home suite.  For my base I have used the Heart & Home Memories & More cards & envelopes.  The card base is very stylish with blue stripes and the envelope matches perfectly with the stripes on the inside.  My layers, I have used the Heart & Home Memories & More card pack.  This pack is great for adding layers to projects and compliments the card bases perfectly.  I stamped the sentiment from the Blessings of Home stamp set in night of navy and added that to the top layer.  The strip underneath is one of the cards which is basic white with a gray woodgrain pattern.  I have added some polished dots to highlight the pattern on the card layer.

For my focal point, I have used a piece of night of navy cardstock and die cut the medallion from the Encircled in Beauty dies. Using the same die, I then cut a circle out of basic white and added a sticker from the Heart & Home Memories & More card pack.
