Hello everyone…
Today I am taking part in the challenge over at CASE Study – CSC141. The inspiration was this card by the super talented Maile Belles:
I knew I wanted to create a card using the style and colours that Maile used, but I wanted to try something other than stamping. So, I took three dye inks that I thought matched closely (Adirondack Watermelon, Adirondack Pool and Adirondack Butterscotch) and swiped each one across a scrap of card stock, and spritzed with Perfect Pearls.
After heat setting each piece, I added double sided tape to the back and using the Spellbinders Fancy Lattice Shapeabilities die, I die-cut the little shapes and did a little paper piecing.
Finally, I die-cut the letters to spell out ‘LOVE U’ three times, using the Memory Box Parker Alphabet. I did this so that I could stack them on top of each other and create a thick letter, which I could stick directly onto the card, rather than using foam adhesive. Here’s a side view:
Thanks for looking!
Fabulous Card! It’s a great take! Cleaver may to make your letters thicker!
Wow! This is so so awesome!! I love it!
Awesome!
Thank you Tasnim and Sandi!
Lovely card 🙂 perfectly CAS
This looks so fun! I really like the close up shot where you show all the dimension!
Wow, this is so gorgeous! I love playing with different techniques and media – you done a fa job!
You put so much work into this card and yet you made it look so easy! This is fabulous and so deserving of the Top Four from Case Study!!
Thank you ladies for all the positive comments!
Love how you used the “throw away” pieces from the die-cut, very creative design!
