Slimline Card

Slimline Card

I joined Freshly Made Sketches again this week. This challenge was something really different. It's a "Slimline" card. I have never made one of these so it was fun to do something different.

Check out all the other cards here:

Freshly Made Sketches

I started with a piece of Whisper White Card Stock, 8 1/2"x7" and scored at 3 1/2".

I punched out the following circles:

 2 1/4" in Basic Black C/S X2

 2 1/4" in Gold Foil X1

 2" in Whisper White C/S X2

 2" in Whisper White

Stamp leaves and greenery onto the 2 Whisper White C/S circles using the following inks: Pretty Peacock, Highland Heather and Gorgeous Grape. Attach to the Basic Black circles. Add to card front using Dimensionals. *See card for placement*

Stamp 2 pieces of greenery using Pretty Peacock and Highland Heather Inks on a scrap of Whisper White C/S and die cut them out. Glue them to the Basic Black C/S circle. Attach off-set to the Gold Foil circle. Attach to middle of card front using Dimensionals. Add 3 Rhinestones. Stamp the sentiment using Memento Black Ink. Cut out and attach using Dimensionals. 

Hope you like todays card!! 

Happy Stamping and Creating!

Our Friendship Is Timeless

This is such an important message right now! All of my family and friends are so important to me. I worry about everyone, I want to go back to "normal", I want everyone to be well. Stay safe, stay well, and stamp your worries away!!!!

I designed this card for the weekly sketch challenge at Freshly made Sketches.
Check out their Blog: https://freshlymadesketches.blogspot.com

Having challenges to do and designing card kits to mail out and creating tutorials is not only keeping me busy, but very good for my well being.

If you live in Canada and would like to place an order and receive a card kit with tutorial contact me! I would love to be your Demonstrator!! 

It's amazing how striking a black and white card is!! 

This card came together very quickly. The card base is Whisper White with a Basic Black layer. The top layer is Whisper White, embossed with the Parisian Flourish 3D Embossing Folder, it is a stunning embossing folder!! I stamped the palm trees in Memento Black Ink (make sure your ink pad is very well re-inked) and immediately sprinkled on Clear Embossing Powder and heat set. As an alternative you could use Black Embossing Powder. The sentiment is stamped in VersaMark on a strip of Basic Black Card Stock and embossed with White Embossing Powder. The trees are popped up with Stampin' Dimensionals and I added some Rhinestones to finish it off. 

Stay safe everyone,
Hugs,
Arlene

Botanical Prints Black and White Card

I made this card in 5 minutes!!!! So fast, so easy, yet so elegant!!

The Stamp Set and Dies are from the Botanical Prints Product Medley Kit. It's on page 61 of the Jan-June 2020 Mini Catalogue. It is by far my favorite kit ever and comes with so many bits and pieces!!! Check it out!!

It was very easy to put together this card. I started with a small card base from the Memories and More Cards and Envelopes, die cut out 4 of the corner decorations in Basic Black. I glued these onto the card base using my Fine Tip Glue. I stamped the floral image from the Botanical Prints Stamp Set in Memento Black in the middle of the card. I added some Wink Of Stella to the image. 

Stamp the sentiment onto a scrap piece of Whisper White, banner cut both ends, add a bit of ribbon to one end and attach to card using dimensional. That's it!!!!

Stay safe, stay strong!

Hugs,

Arlene
