Trio of cards

stamps used:  Unity stamp co. - Moments of Bliss, Hey Friend, Every single day stamp sets
These three cards were cased from a FB LIVE that Angela from Unity did earlier this week.
For this card I layered the three sections onto a piece of 4"x 5 1/4" white card.  Each panel was stamped with a similar color ink as the cardstock.


This card wast stamped on kraft cardstock with white pigment ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder.  I added some white highlight with a white color pencil.  The stamped kraft card was adhered to a piece of 4" x 5 1/4" white card then adhered to a kraft note card.

I call this card a Cut up card just my name ... don't know if there is another name floating out there in cyber space.  I think, no I know this mint green card is my favorite.  Anyone know why?  well, if you know me then you do.  teeheeheee  First I stamped on 3 3/4" x 5" mint card with black ink with the saying on the bottom portion of the card.  Next I stamped the flower image twice.  I'm not much for measuring so I just put the card in my cutter and cut three panels.  I will tell you I cut the horizontal line first so I wouldn't cut off any of the saying.  After that I just cut the flower in two panels then taped the three panels onto a 4" x 5 1/4" black layer.  The stamped layer was taped to a mint green note card.  To finish I glued on some sequins.

simple but effective.

MIUCB #19 - Aperture/opening

stamps used:  Stampin' Up
This month at Mix It Up Blog we are doing apertures or openings in our cards/projects.  Me, of course it is cards!  If I have a choice I always seem to create cards and so why make this month any different.  
cutting dimensions for card:
base card - 5 1/2" x 8 1/2"
left panel - 1" x 5 1/4"  mount with foam mounting tape
right panel - 2" x 5 1/4"  mount with foam mounting tape
pattern paper - 1 1/2" x 5 1/4"  adhere with double stick tape

Before I mounted the cut pieces I embossed with embossing folders for a little more detail to my cards.  Stamp layers before mounting to card.
Simple but effective cards, at least I think so.  How about you?
Join in at MIUCB this month and show us your creations and remember it's always better with a little stamping on the side.
come back soon.

Cut up card with video





A cut up card is just what it sounds like ... a card that is cut up into sections.  some people like to do measurements but I am not one of them.  I just went for it and cut it up.  I will give measurements of the layers but when it comes to cutting it up ... sorry I just did what looked good to me.  I did three color schemes for my cards ... I started with the orange, purple and last the yellow and each time I liked it but I do have to say I think my favorite is the yellow one.  how about you?
you can watch the video here in this post at the bottom or at Sue Wisniewski - YouTube
