Love One Another

Hi Friends! 

I hope all of you are having a wonderful week so far!  I wanted to share another card I designed with the brand new ODBD February 2017 Release stamp set, Hugs & Kisses along with the new ODBD Layering Hearts Dies and the previously released ODBD Pierced Rectangles Dies, ODBD Plum Pizzazz and ODBD Whimsical Wildflowers 6x6 Paper Collections.

I love playing along with online challenges and decided to incorporate The Paper Players PP329 Sketch Challenge into the design.

If you have not had a chance to visit the ODBD Blog yet or The Paper Players challenge site yet, I would encourage you to do so- gorgeous inspiration from all! 

To create this card:

1). Trim a piece of the dark purple patterned paper from the ODBD Plum Pizzazz  Collection 6x6 Paper Pad to 4 ¼” x 5 ½” and mount onto a white card base.

2). Trim a piece of white cardstock to approx. 4 1/8” x 5 3/8” and mount onto the card front.

3). Die cut and emboss a piece of ODBD Plum Pizzazz Collection 6x6 Paper using the ODBD Pierced Rectangles Dies and mount onto the card front.

4). De-static a piece of white cardstock with an embossing powder tool, ink and stamp the verse image from the ODBD Hugs & Kisses stamp set with embossing ink first, then stamp into purple distress ink, apply clear embossing powder and heat set with a heat tool.  Die cut and emboss the panel with the ODBD Pierced Rectangles Dies and mount onto the card front.

5). Die cut and emboss the hearts using the ODBD Layering Hearts Dies from ODBD Plum Pizzazz Collection and ODBD Whimsical Collection 6x6 Paper Pads, also die cutting the same size hearts from soft yellow cardstock, adhering the patterned paper onto the soft yellow cardstock hearts (to give the hearts a bit more thickness).  Mount the layered hearts onto the card front per the sketch.

6). Add a few silver sequins to finish off the card.

This was a fun card to create! 

Thanks again for taking the time to stop by and visit- hugs and I hope I have inspired you with this Clean and Simple card!

  2. Julie what a great CAS card to showcase those beautiful papers. The purple and yellow is an unusual combination yet works really well. Thanks for playing along with my sketch challenge over at The Paper Players this week!
