Day 7: 30 Days, 30 Cards

Hi everyone and welcome to Day 7 of our 30 Days, 30 Cards.  I am happy to be here to show you another card idea.  My inspiration came from Cardabilities.  I loved all the layers of this card!  Here is the sketch.

Here is my version of the card.  I started with different cuts from my die-cut machine with red and green card stock layered on embossed white card stock.  I added baker's twine before I adhered it all.  I also made several cuts to make the poinsettia.  I layered the cuts, inked all the pieces, misted the edges then raised it off the paper.  I cut the striped paper at 1" and put across the card and another piece just slightly under it.  I cut the salutation and placed it on the card.  I added Stickles for a little bling and sprayed the card with Glimmer Mist.

Day 3: 30 Days, 30 Cards

Hi everyone and welcome to Day 3 of our 30 Days, 30 Cards.  I am happy to be here to show you another card idea.  My inspiration came from RetroSketches.  I was excited to see sleek simple lines for a quick and easy card.  Here is the sketch.

For my interpretation of the card, I started with some craft colored cardstock, followed by some My Mind's Eye Mistletoe Magic Washi Tape.  Then I added a few strips of paper from the Simple Stories December Documented - 6x6 Pad.  Next I used my die-cut machine and created the saying "Deck the Halls" and layered it off the paper a smidge with popdots.  I couldn't stop there so I added some We R Memory Keepers Red Baker's Twine followed by another die-cut of a wreath.  I love a little bling so I added Stickles in a few spots.  I might also mention I inked all the edges of the papers used, with Tim Holtz inks. 

I hope you have enjoyed today's card and don't forget to come back tomorrow for some more inspiration from Design TeamMember Cathy.  Also, make sure you check out 30 Days, 30 Cards page and see how you can win a prize!

MW August Challenge Me Wednesday - "Going Places"

Hi everyone... Janey here!  The day isn't over yet, so I think I am just under the wire to share with you the challenge for this month!  Challenge: "Going Places" - To include a layout using signs, post cards and/or maps showing the different places we have gone or done this summer (even if it's a staycation)! 

Here is what I was able to create from one of our recent trips.  I used product from MW Express Kits that I subscribe to.  I cut trees and mountains as well as the jeep, signs and map silhouette.  I inked the edges of everything, using my Tim Holtz inks.  I used washi tape from my stash and Stickles for a little bling.  The journaling is on my "postcard" from Simple Stories stash.  I had fun layering everything until I got the desired look.  I used pop-dots to help give a little dimension in a few spots.
