Tri-fold card


Hi everyone. It's time for another challenge over at The House That Stamps Built. This week our challenge is our designer choice. Esther wants us to try a new technique. I did a trifold card.





This is new for me, as I tend to shy away from fancy folds, but this one actually turned out pretty decent and was fun to do. I used vellum behind the leaf cover die. 


There's a new challenge every week over at  The House That Stamps Built, and you don't have to use Repeat Impressions stamps to link up or win. Also, for my blog readers: Enjoy the 10% discount code to the Repeat Impressions Store posted on the sidebar.

Celebrate the season

Hello everyone. Playing in the Freshly Made Sketch challenge today.


Card is 4.5 x 4.5 square. Poinsettia layering stamp is from Hero Arts. The sentiment is also from a past Hero Arts Holiday set. I used Altenew inks to stamp with. The squares are popped up using foam tape to create some dimension.

Resisted the urge to add any bling or additional embellishments on this and kept it clean and simple.

Also adding this into the Simon Says Stamp "anything goes" challenge.
Thanks for stopping by.

Congratulations!


Hi everyone. It's time for another challenge over at The House That Stamps Built. This week our challenge is the use the following sketch graphic.


I changed mine up a bit, as you can see, but kept it pretty close to the original sketch.  Used a lot of distress inks on the key panel to grunge it up a bit. I colored in the keys to make them a silhoette. Cork paper is used on the fishtail banner. I found some brushed aluminum looking designer paper and used that behind the keys. It kind of reminded me of a door plate and just maybe the key hole is behind it. Sentiment added to finish off the new house themed card.

Thank you

Hello. Playing in the Less is More challenge today of using small images.


This also turned into a one layer card. Flower stamps are from Stamplorations, Dee's artsy impressions. I use this set a lot, love it! I stamped the flowers in white pigment ink and then decided to heat emboss them so that they would stand out more. I used Fabrika decoru for the flower centers. Kraft cardstock is from PTI.
