I am not sure about you, but August is one of those months, lots of birthdays... I missed a few
but was so happy the card class I attended had several choice pre designed for birthdays, or easy to change the sentiment...Woo Hoo
The first one was designed as a thank you, but it was so easy to change it up ... It was stamped with the set named Stippled Blossoms from SU...And the SU consultant is so happy to do all the fancy cutting, yep another Woo Hoo lol the back ground stamp Haedwood is one of the truest designs I have ever seen...yep I bought it lol the embossing on the top layer of the banner adds so much and flowers and leaves are all popped up at different levels ~ love love love this one
And # 2 for the Birthdays is something so different and fun to me~ I can see this set being a stand by for teen cards or masculine cards .I thought the color combo was great..The name of the set for the splotchy or spilled paint look is Gorgeous Grunge iand the Happy Birthday is from Age Awareness
Love how they look perfect together... Not sure which set the label was from... Again dry embossing the small blue square and piercing the label add so much
Now # 3 is a much softer look and a new technique as well We used painters tape to press into the ink and place on the card stock to go with the birds image It came out light and so perfect... who would have thought lol ?? The set used was Wetlands, it comes with 3 different sentiments so I did one birthday and one thinking of you . I thought the wood grain embossing was great like drift wood...It is the Woodgrain embossing folder
There you go for tonight ~ I have a couple more from the class but I will be back with those
Thanks for stopping by, still pretty weather so grab your tea from the fridge in the breezeway
Til next time
Smile, and CREATE....
Bye Bye
These cards are lovely! I especially like the one with the masking tape technique. TFS. Great creating!
ReplyDeletePainters tape Sharon, it leaves a much lighter look with the ink and thank you I love her designs, So much more than I ever think to do ~ I am hoping that by continuing to go and consistently doing these extra steps that it will become a part of the process
ReplyDeleteThese cards are just fabulous! I over the splatted paint look on card #2.
ReplyDeleteI KNOW It really grabbed me too I have not bought sets in a long time but I think that will be changing ~
