Especially for You…

It seems like forever since my last post, but with the wedding season upon us, invitations & receptions have been taking up all my spare time.
 
Today’s post is one I created a couple of weeks go & thought I would share with you.  It is a very easy layout but one that can be changed out to whatever you want using different stamps, colours & even DSP.

Sending Sympathy….

Our card today is a Triple Layer Card we created in Crafty Creations at the Caloundra Community Centre this afternoon.   The ladies loved it, although we did have a few accidents – ink accidents, ie….

Not only could your imagination go wild thinking of different placements for the front, but they are an easy card to create as well as having a every effective card at the end.

I don’t usually create bright cards, but tend to use the Neutral & Subtle Colour Families.  When doing classes I like to think “outside the square“, so to speak which means I tend to take into account what each person likes including colours & styles. It would be a very boring world if we liked all the same, wouldn’t it?

Supplies used to create this card –
Stamp Set  –  Stippled Blossoms (C) – 126747, Petite Pairs(C) – 122497
Ink  –  Pink Pirouette – 126956, Primrose Petals – 126858, Old Olive – 126953, Wild Wasabi – 126959
Cardstock  –  Whisper White – 106549, Old Olive – 106576
Punches  –  Large Oval – 119855
