STARRY, STARRY NIGHT

This design from the ENJOY THE JOURNEY DESIGNER SERIES PAPER immediately reminded me of the song “Vincent” by Don McLean.

I attached ADHESIVE SHEET to the back of DISTRESSED GOLD 12″x 12″ SPECIALTY PAPER and used the ALPHABET A LA MODE DIES and the GIVE IT A WHIRL DIES to cut the letters and stars for the card front.

The DSP was layered onto a Basic White Matte and the Night of Navy card base.

I took a length of gold SIMPLY ELEGANT TRIM and tied a multi-loop bow.

Tomorrow I have a 3D project to share. Until then, happy stamping.

TAKING THE ENJOY THE JOURNEY PAPER FOR A DIFFERENT SPIN

When I saw this sheet of Disgner Series Paper I knew it would be ideal for a feminine card.

I teamed the ENJOY THE JOURNEY DSP with the CONVERSATION BUBBLES BUNDLE for this project.

After adding the conversation bubble frames to the card front, I cut a bunch of flowers and attached them. The PETAL PARK BUILDER PUNCH was used to cut the flowers.

When the bubble frames are cut the dies also leave an embossed finish.

The LOOSE FLOWER FLOURISHES were a perfect match for the card.

I still have two more GREATEST JOURNEY projects to share with you. So until then, happy stamping.

TOTALLY BRILLIANT MOUNTAIN BIKE CARD

This card was so exciting to design and create. I wanted to capture a mountain bike silhouette midway throught an aerial.

I decided to create a trifold card for this project,

After I chose the Pumpkin Pie graduated DSP, I carefully cut it so that each part of the card had continuity in the paper design.

For the card front, I added a die cut piece of Basic Black cardstock to create a mountain top image for the bike to ‘ride over’.

I added ADHESIVE SHEET to some Basic Black cardstock and then cut the letters needed for the card front, using the ALPHABET A’ LA MODE DIES. The card front front declares ‘ADVENTURE’.

As you can see, the panels of Designer Series Paper align perfectly. I added ‘THRILLS’ using Basic Black cardstock and adhesive sheet.

For the inside panel, I used one of the LAYERING CIRCLES DIES to cut a space for one of the mountain bikes to ‘do an aerial’.

The mountain bike was cut twice to ensure some twine could be secured through the centre and allow it to be suspended in the circle cut space.

To finish the card, a panel of Basic White cardstock was cut and then the circle was cut. After the mountain bike was secured between the two card layers, with some twine in place, a small DSP panel was adhered across the top of panel.

This is such a great collection for masculine cards. I’m looking forward to creating more projects.

Tomorrow I have another project to share with you – using this collection.

Until then, happy stamping!
