A {Just a Note} Card...
Wednesday, January 2, 2013
Wow, that was quite the blogging hiatus I just had. It was glorious though, my hubby was on vacation and the kids were on break. Not much crafting happened unless you count cooking and baking (which I definitely do). I did teach myself how to knit, just the basics though.
Since I haven't made a card in a week or two, I knew I should start with something easy. A one-layer card was in order. I pulled out an older CSS set, Love Cupid. It contains a damask image that is cut in two, right down the middle. I arranged both halves on my acrylic block to make the shape that is stamped on the left, I turned the stamp 180* and stamped the right side of the card.
The stamped images actually go off the card on both sides, I trimmed the edges after the images were stamped.
After I stamped the main image in pink, I took the two stamps and individually stamped a "shadow" of the first image in yellow, slightly toward the center of the card.
The card ended up being a little small, perfect for "just a note". The finished size is approx. 4" x 2.75".
Have a great day!
