A Card a Day in May--Day 11!

Hello friends! I really love my card share today as its so bright and cheery and features one of my favorite new stamp sets—Simply Fabulous! This set has great sentiments in a fun font and some super cute imagery to support!

I love the crisp background of this card that just lets our fabulous new In Color’s really shine on this card! The Basic White looks great on the Orchid Oasis card base.

The sentiment is stamped in Starry Sky and is die cut using the Stylish Shapes Dies (#addtocart) and raised up on a few Dimensionals. It is then brought to life with the fun flowers and greenery from the Simply Fabulous stamp set!

 

There is no hardware so to speak for this stamp set so you will have to hand trim out all of these images! I stamped a collection of little flowers in the new In Colors and the greenery all in Parakeet Party.

The little flowers look super cute with the Matte Decorative Dots added to the centers and are layered with Dimensionals to add some texture!

If you haven’t add the Simply Fabulous stamp set to your collection, I say #addtocart as it has so much potential! I know I will crafting with this alot!

Have a wonderful day my friends!

A Card a Day in May--Day 2!

Hello friends! Thank you for coming back to another A Card a Day in May project share! Today I wanted to share a card that I made for a recent Waves of the Ocean class as my favorite thing about it is actually the starburst technique!

This card was created featuring the Waves of the Ocean DSP which I don’t believe is available any longer however you can easily recreate this card using any DSP that catches your eye!

This project features the Waves of Inspiration bundle which was an early release bundle and I was lucky enough to receive it as a member of the Artisan Design Team so I had a lot of fun creating with it. Not only did I used it to create some Design Team projects but I also used this bundle for an online class.

However I wanted to share it with you because this card just feel so relaxing and serene to me and I love how fun and easy it is to create a starburst pattern or detail.

I also like how adding the embossed panel at the bottom and hiding the seam with ribbon can disguise the weird center that develops from laying down the strips to make the starbust. I just randomly angle but strips of DSP (great way too use up those scraps) and lay the skinny point along a center point. I do not get technical and measure, I honestly just eyeball it. You will have paper hanging off of the base so simply snip that away!

Add a few clouds to the starburst section using the dies, a sentiment, twine and some rhinestones and voila!
