Hi Stampers, It’s Alternate Monday day. That means I am sharing a card taken from the blog hop that I participate in each Thursday. I am taking either the sketch or color challenge and making a second card that is close to or similar to the posted card from the hop. I want to inspire you to get different looks for your card by mixing it up a bit by color and design. Today I used the same layout, with a twist and changed the colors to give the card an “Alternate” look.
Stampin’ Up! Happy Birthday Gorgeous:
Here is the recipe:
Card base: Very Vanilla 4-1/4 x 11, scored at 5-1/2
Mat: Berry Burst 4 x 5-1/4
DSP: Eastern Palace DSP 3-7/8 x 5-1/8
Banner: Gold Glimmer paper 2-3/8 x 4-7/8, (cut a tail in the end with your paper snips)
Oval: Gold Foil Paper die cut with the Oval Stitched Framelit
Art Piece: Very Vanilla Oval cut the with the Layering Oval Die Framelit
The Details:
- Adhere the DSP to the Berry Burst mat
- Wrap a piece of Berry Burst ribbon around the mats
- Attach the mats to the card base with dimensionals
- Adhere your Gold Glimmer paper banner with fast fuse to the front of the card (on top of the DSP and red mat)
- Stamp your sentiment in Berry Burst ink onto the oval Very Vanilla art piece
- Attach the sentiment to the gold foil oval and mount to the front of the card with dimensionals
More Details:
- Stamp your leaves in Old Olive ink using the leaf stamp from the colorful seasons stamp set
- Die cut the leaves with the matching framlits
- Add a loop of Mini Gold Sequins to the left of the sentiment
- Tie a Berry Burst bow and attach it to the left side of the sentiment
- Adhere the leaves at the stem and place three of them in a cluster to the left of the oval sentiment by the Berry Burst bow
- Finish it off with a Enamel Shaped Heart tucked under the sentiment
Here is another card:
This card is put together just like the one above, I used different paper and a different shape for the sentiment, this continues changing it up with the alternate look.
