Hello and welcome to my blog! My name is Saundra and I am a cardmaker. I love to create and I hope you find a bit of inspiration while you are here.
CASE Your Fellow AECP Crafter
First, If you arrived her from Evette's Blog: Stamp the Fun UP, then I am so happy to have you!
All of the blog hop participants have either completed their Altenew Educator Certification Program or they are still working their way through it. I am still working my way through it.
We were all challenged to CASE one of our fellow AECP crafters.
Here are the cards I created:
I CASED this beautiful card created by Joy D'Souza from Handcrafted By Joy.
You can find all the details about her card in this Blog Post.
I was really inspired by her background.
To create my card I first took a panel of Distress Watercolor Cardstock and ink blended with Kitsch Flamingo Distress Oxide Ink. This is such a soft pretty pink and it was a great base for my other colors.
Next I took some ink daubers and randomly inked the small circular shape on the the panel. For this I used Altenew Crisp Inks in Coral Berry and Ruby Red and more of the Kitsch Flamingo Distress Oxide. I varied my pressure to get the look I was after.
Instead of using the whole panel for one card I decided to cut it so I could create two cards. This is great way to stretch your supplies and build your card stash. I wanted my cards to be similar but not exactly the same I adhered the background to my card panels in opposite directions.
The flowers I chose are from Altenew's Beautiful Day stamps. These are an older set but I just love them!
I used the Beautiful Day Dies to cut out my floral pieces and arranged them on my cards. I adhered them using some Lawn Fawn Glue Tube and foam adhesive.
Just before gluing everything down I stamped my sentiments.
I really love how these cam out and I hope you do, too!
I have linked all of my supplies down below.
