Sending my Love {COLOR DARE CHALLENGE #607}

Hello and Welcome to my Blog!



 Join me this time, I was inspired by challenge #607 from the Color Dare Challenge Blog!

Using the color palette TICTACTOE Diagonal featuring (3) hues like Royal, Lagoon and Shortbread, along use Gold and white!




This card features a stunning textured background I created using the "Blossom Field" embossing folder from Simon Says Stamp. I embossed three panels in the gorgeous hues of the latest Color Dare Challenge Blog, adding a touch of dimension and artistry.



A delicate, vellum circle (cut with a dotted die) peeks through, revealing a hint of the colors beneath. To amp up the elegance, I stitched a simple white thread detail across the vellum, adding a touch of whimsy. The heartfelt sentiment "Sending My Love" is heat foiled in gold using a Spellbinders Glimmer Hot Foil system and die, adding a touch of luxury. The card base is 4.25 x 5.50 Here's a closer look :



I surely enjoyed crafting this card and the outcome is just lovely,  using this color combination and using my emobssing folder which I love!

Show your teacher some love with these End-of-Year card ieas!

Hello and Welcome to my Blog!

  Looking for a heartfelt way for your class to say goodbye to their amazing teacher this year? These two DIY card designs are the perfect way to express your gratitude and leave a lasting impression.


Card #1

I begin with a crisp white base (5"x7") and a bold red panel embossed with a Lattice Work Spellbinders Embossing folder for a touch of texture. This panel was dramatically cut on the diagonal, creating a dynamic element. Across the diagonal is stamped in black Memento ink using Papertrey Ink's "Alphabet Border" stamp set. To add a pop of color and frame the message, a thin yellow border is added, mirroring the diagonal cut.  A bow made with white and gold twine adds a touch of elegance, while I stamped a red apple (the teacher's favorite fruit!) and a touch of Glossy Accents for shine complete this pretty card design.

and then for 



Card #2

This card uses the same white base and embossed red panel with a diagonal cut, but this time, a vibrant purple die-cut border adds a playful touch. Three tiny green dots  in the bottom right corner. The "Thanks Teacher" sentiment, stamped in black ink in the Papertrey Ink "Notebook Page" stamp, completes the message. Just like Card #1, a red apple and Glossy Accents add dimension, while a white and gold twine bow on the top border finishes the design with a touch of cuteness!

Both cards are perfect ways for a class to show their appreciation for their amazing teacher!  a personalize message was added to the inside of both cards.

Here's a video to watch the inside and details picture of both cards...
