Happy FriYay, everyone.
I've been busy with design team assignments, but thought I'd share another card I made using an older Gecko Galz collage sheet blog freebie Joyeux Noel. When making this card, I discovered that a Spellbinders Nested Postage Stamp die frames these twinchie-sized images very well, so you'll be seeing it on many of the rest of the cards I made. In addition to the postage stamp die, I've also used a Stamplorations Stitched Blessings word die and both papers were cut using Stamplorations Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangle Nested dies. I ran a white gel pen messily around The Paper Studio green designer paper stitching. The tartan plaid designer paper is from a Tim Holtz Idea*ology paper stash collection.
I used this Splitcoaststampers sketch for my A2 layout design.
Supply List:
Gecko Galz digital images
SU red card stock base
The Paper Studio and Tim Holtz designer papers
Spellbinders Postage Stamp Nested die
Stamplorations Crazy Running Stitch Rectangle Nested dies
Stamplorations Stitched Blessings word die
White gel pen
The back has more of the plaid and a Hero Arts stamped and punched siggie.
This is the back of the green paper layer and you can see the die cut stitching that I covered up with the white gel penning.
And here you can see the die cut stitching on the plaid layer. You also barely see the stitching on the sentiment die.
And final view.
So as to not totally bore you with these images on cards, I'm going to try to space out my posts for the rest of them.
Thanks for the visit and have a great end of your week!

ReplyDeleteYour card using the Gecko Galz collage sheet is absolutely stunning! The Spellbinders Nested Postage Stamp die frames the images perfectly, and the combination of papers and stitching details adds such a lovely touch.

ReplyDeleteI'm combing both of your holiday card posts in this comment since the hubby is bugging me to go get ready for the day-grin. I like how you used smaller images and highlighted them.I like the postage stamped cut around the Noel and the plain cut around the the religious scenes. I still am amazed at how you start your holiday cards so early.It's a good thing and I wish I could get into myself. Have a lovely Easter weekend. hugs-Erika

ReplyDeleteFat fingers get in the way of typing. My comment previously was sent before I finished. I wanted to thank you for being a part of the Krafty Chicks Challenge this week. We hope to see you again real soon.
ReplyDeleteThere’s just something majestic about using a deer on a project! I also love the postage squares to frame them. Thank you for playing with the All Occasion theme with the Krafty Chicks Challenge.
