Never Stop Dancing

Posted on February 3, 2015 6:36 PM by Julie 1 Comment

I’m back with another card for the Color Challenge (CC516) and this time I’m also combining it with the Technique Challenge (TLC519) to put the sentiment “down under”. For the dessert option on the Color Challenge, it was to use vellum. I actually have two different vellums on mine..the one covering the dp is a white w/ melon mambo pink dots all over it. I also have a plain white vellum strip with the bird and music stamped on it. I colored it on the backside and pierced all around the edges.

The dp behind the pink dotted vellum is only black & white but I added a little light pink to some areas. The layers were all die cut then I cut a curved separation at the bottom in order to stamp the greeting on the bottom layer of dk pink dp. I added some sequins and a few gems for sparkle.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Supplies:

Stamps: Our Daily Bread designs – Music Speaks

Paper: white, dp (dk pink =Basic Grey -Kneehighs, black/white print – Glitz), pink dot vellum, white vellum

Ink: Stazon black

Accessories: Spellbinders A2 matting basics A&B, Copic markers, sequins, pink gems

ODBD June Release Rewind!

Posted on June 20, 2014 7:58 AM by Julie 6 Comments

Today we are revisiting the beautiful Our Daily Bread designs June Release! Such lovely images, dies and papers! AND..today (6/20) is the last day to get FREE Shipping! So take advantage of it!!

For my somewhat involved layout, I used several pieces of the Blushing Rose paper. It’s so beautiful, it almost hurts me to cut into it. I also used a few leftover strips (couldn’t bear to waste it!) on some of the narrow inside panels. So as I’m sitting there, playing around with layouts, I devised a little different accordion card. The finished size still fits in an A2 envelope, but might need a little padding to protect that vellum rose. I’m pretty sure rolling up the vellum for that rose was the hardest, most frustrating part of the whole card. Vellum does not like to rolled! But I wanted a delicate looking rose to go with the papers. After rolling it, I sponged the edges with pink inks, added a pearl brad center and some vellum leaves die cut from the ODBD Zinnia & Leaves dies. I sponged them w/ the bamboo ink. You’ll also see a viney flourish from the ODBD Fancy Flourish dies cut out of a piece of the Rose paper. The front panel with the proverb is also from the Rose paper and was die cut with the large inset die of the ODBD Vintage Flourish Pattern dies. I cut the very front on a deep curve so it wouldn’t cover it up.

For the back panel, I stamped the Galilee Rose onto vellum using the olive ink and colored the back side with Copics. I attached it to an ivory paper then to the dotted green paper from the Blushing Rose.

On the back side of the folds, I added the narrow left over strips along with some die cut borders from the ODBD Beautiful Borders dies and some fussy cut roses from the Rose set.

Thanks so much for stopping by! Please be sure to visit all of the DT blogs for more fabulous inspiration.

To Have & To Hold

Posted on May 5, 2014 12:52 PM by Julie 1 Comment

Today’s Technique Challenge (TLC480) is to have the sentiment on top of the image. I chose to have mine on a vellum strip over the image. And for the Clean & Simple Challenge (CAS271), we are CASEing Angela Maine. I chose THIS wedding card of the same name. I kept the wedding card theme & oval, but used pink as an accent color & used a vertical orientation instead of horizontal.

This card is pretty easy because I already had the background done. It’s a Belleek technique from TLC361 where you use a light colored ink on your embossing folder before embossing. The happy couple was stamped on white and just a touch of pink was added to the flowers. The greeting was stamped on a strip of vellum & I used a bracket border die on the top & bottom edges. I added a couple of die cut frames, my vellum greeting & that was it.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
