Card Word Puzzle

One of my favorite blogs is Lisa Stenz and when I saw this card I knew I had to reproduce it for my workshops.

How simple is card is but what an impact. Taking a Daisy white cardstock base I've layered a Chocolate cs piece 2 1/4" x 2 1/4" then a piece of the Pemberley B/T paper 2" x 2" on top. I've stamped the sentiment from the new Card Word Puzzle (C1494  $13.95) with Chocolat ink.

The small flower is also from the CardWord Puzzle stamp set. I've stamped it onto a scrap piece of the Pemberley B/T and cut it out. On a piece of vellum with Staz-On brown ink I've stamped the flower again then cut it out. I've mounted both pieces with mounting tape onto the center square.

Clean & simple. Thanks Lisa Stenz.

Enjoy your day!

Using the Zip Strip..

Another card created by Mary Thomas. I love how she has used the Zip Strip that is on every sheet of B/T paper. On one side of the Zip Strip is the border and on the other is listed all the colors used in the paper packet.

Don't you love the flower? Using the Cricut AP cartridge for the patterned paper background and the overlay cardstock makes alot of impact. The center of the flower is the Bouquet Assortment.

Enjoy your day!

Circle Card

Pemberley card with Water Brush

A simple card I made for my last workshop using the Card Word Puzzle (C1494  $13.95) and Indian Corn Blue ink.

I stamped the large flower with Indian Corn Blue ink and taking the water brush I softened some of the lines. I love working with the water brush as all you are using is water, which is free, and makes a big impact. Bamboo marker is used at the end of the stamins in the middle.
Pemberley B/T paper is 1/2" wide and goes the width of the card. Alittle hemp and then the sentiment stamped and mounted on Desert Sand cardstock.

Enjoy your day!
