Hello to you! I've been having to work on quick and easy cards lately and would like to share a get well card I made. The card layout is cased from Amanda Burditt. Her card is shown below.
I particularly love the masculine look to this card with the combination of colors and textures. The hand drawn frame is what brings it all together.
Here is my version of a masculine get well card.
My Tips:
in order to create the hand-drawn border, use a ruler and pencil and lightly draw the border. Then use a white gel pen to trace over the pencil lines. Make sure to erase any stray pencil marks.
I used the small scallop cutting blade withe the stampin' trimmer.
use the chevron punch in coordinating colors for the arrows.
For the past month, I have been a very busy lady trying to keep up with all the baby cards that I have to make. I really feel like it's baby season right now. I have 6 friends right now that will be having a baby soon.
I got to enjoy some alone time, just me and my crafting desk. It has been a fun and sweet time! Allow me to share what I've created lately....
With the limited amount of time I have, I decided to go with some caseing from the catalog. The first card I created is CASEd from page 80 of the Stampin' UP! catalog as shown below.
Below is my version of this card. While the Sweetest Gift stamp set is already retired, I am limited on baby stamp sets so that's why I chose to use this set.
MY TIPS:
I used the leftover circle that you punch out of the Daydream Medallions stamp set as my polka dot background.
Stampin' UP! markers are my favorite when it comes to stamping in different colors. Simply color on the lines of the stamp in the color you desire and give it a little huff before you stamp. I did the same thing with the banner with the phrase and the mobile on the inside of the card (shown on the right).
