Here's the sketch to help you play along:
My go to thick Whisper White card base has a mat of Just Jade embossed with the Bricks & Mortar 3D Embossing folder. I've diecut with the Stitched Rectangles a piece of Flowers for All Seasons DSP which gave me a mat and a frame. After adhering the mat in place (realise it could have been a bit further up, but it's ok for a change), I've turned the frame around and popped some Foam Adhesive Strips on the back to give some dimension and it made the stripes just a little different.
I've used the Layering Circles Dies to cut a piece of Forever Gold Laser Cut Specialty Paper and a piece of Whisper White the same size, then adhered the gold to the white with a bit of multipurpose adhesive. I've popped this onto Stampin' Dimensionals avoiding the edge of the frame so it was the same height.
I've diecut a bird in Cinnamon Cider from the Birds & More dies, adding a scrap of Basic Black cardstock behind the bird to define the markings the die makes and glued it in place. The greeting is from a set in the Beginner Brochure called Four Season Floral. I've used Just Jade ink on Whisper White cardstock and cut it down so it didn't cover up the gold foil.
To finish I've added a (retired) Baker's Twine bow and some of the little Flowers for Every Season Gems.
We'd love to see your version of the sketch. You have until next Sunday evening to make a card and add the picture to our Facebook page using the link over to the right.

Such a pretty card!! I love the gold on the circle.
ReplyDeleteGreat card. Love how you have flipped the frame/rectangle to mix up the lines so it pops more.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card Sandra, the gold laser cut paper looks fabulous on the circle and I love the black behind the bird, it really defines the birds markings.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous - the laser cut paper is stunning - I had to look a couple of times to work out what it was
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea - die cutting the gold foil to layer the circle! Love it, have to try it!
ReplyDeleteLovely, Sandra. Love the gold laser cut paper on the circle and great idea to die cut it.
