SPEEDY FOX & FRIENDS CHALLENGE 269

This week's challenge is to create a card with Cut-away Embossing.  You can find the tutorial HERE.

 Here is my card:

 

 

 

This was a fun technique that I had never tried before but I will definitely be making more cards using this technique.  For my card this week I chose the Cuttlebug Geometric Rings embossing folder and a Martha Stewart Pinking Scallop border punch.  I chose the sentiment from the Tree Scene and the diamond flowers from the Background Diamonds and Flowers set both from MFP Stamp Shop.  The sentiment was stamped with Versafind Onyx Black ink on my base card and the embossed and punched pieces were adhered with foam mounting tape.  The two flowers on each end were stamped on white card stock with Simon Says Stamp Lipstick Red ink and adhered at the top and bottom on the diamond with pop dots.

I hope you'll join us this week, you can find the challenge HERE.

Thank you for stopping by, I hope you have a Happy 4th of July and a wonderful creative week.

This week our challenge is to create a card with seven (7) layers. 

Here is my card:

 

For my card this week I chose die cuts from Spellbinders and My Favorite Things for all my layers but my main image is the beautiful rose from the Roses set and the sentiment is from the Butterfly Sayings set both from MFP Stamp Shop.  The rose was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink twice and colored with Copic markers.  One of the roses was cut with a Spellbinders Circle die and the second rose was fussy cut eliminating the leaves and adhered on top with dimensionals.  The get well sentiment was stamped with Versafine Onyx Black ink and cut with a banner die and adhered to another die both from My Favorite Things.  So there you have it seven layers: (1) folded card; (2) white cardstock cut with die cut; (3) designer paper; (4) circle die cut with stamped rose image; (5) second rose on dimensionals; (6) large rectangle along bottom; and, (7) banner with Get Well Soon!.
