So Tweet of You - {The Kraft Journal}

Hello There!

This week at The Kraft Journal the new challenge is Birds.  I started with a card base of Brown Kraft Cover Weight Cardstock which I layered pieced patterned papers together leaving the bottom of the A2 size card exposed to a thin space of Kraft.  In black ink, I stamped "So Tweet of you" (Wilson Designs) to the lower right corner. Next I took a Brown Kraft Tag and stamped small butterfly images (DeNami Design) in Versa Mark Ink to create a subtle background.


Once the stamping was done, I added Natural Twill Tape to the top of the tag next adding the prepped tag to the card front horizontally in the center. Next I took a Vintage Black Journaling Card that has a bird on it to the left of the card front.  I die-cut a decorative circle in gray cardstock adding a punched scallop circle from Vintage Dictionary Pages to the center. I used my Cricut machine to cut out the bird using the Wall Decor and More cartridge by cutting it out three times with Brown Kraft Cover Weight Cardstock and gluing them on top of the other to form a replica of chipboard. Next I cut the bird one more time from gray patterned paper and glued it to the top of the prepped chipboard piece adding it to the right of the decorative circle. In the center I added a multi-loop bow created from Earthy Hemp Cord adding a resin pink flower to the center to complete the card.

Please be sure to head over to the The Kraft Journal to check out the projects by the other talented ladies.  We hope to see your Bird creations in the gallery this week for your chance to be featured on our "Feature me Friday" post as well as be entered to win a $15.00 gift voucher from The Kraft Outlet store.

 
Have a great week!

E.A.D. Designs Plum Shabby Color Challenge 1


Plum Shabby Color Challenge 1

E.A. D. Designs is hosting their first Color challenge and the colors are Black, Plum and Gray. How divine and rich is that??? Below is the inspiration photo.


This card included several things that I love, paper, ribbon, buttons, stamping, black, purple, gray, and a little bling!!!....Um just about everything, okay, let’s get to the card {wink wink} I Started out with Stampin’ UP! Perfect Plum as my standard A2 base I then added a layer each of designer paper by Making Memories before I adhered it to my card base.  

I used my Gypsy to cut the remaining images to simplify things as they are from two different cartridges.  After my scallop top note was cut in the gray, I used VersaMark ink with Damask Designs by Papertrey Ink to create a subtle background image.  

Next I layered the chair cut. Can you see the purple peeking underneath in the scroll? {love it} Then I reversed the paper layers for the word Relax which I adhered with foam adhesive, before adding a few rhinestones to finish it off. Oh, and did you notice I had to have a rhinestone to the top of the chair!  Last but not least I added some buttons!

I hope you enjoyed this fun little card as much as I enjoyed creating it! It is much cuter in person!!! I am glad I got to participate in E.A.D. Designs First Color Challenge!

Take care and have a great day!
