Hi There. I just wanted to share a small post with you tonight. I made a card for this week's Global Design Project colour challenge. Here is the inspiration;


And, here is the card I ended up with;


I started with the Mint Macaron DSP from the stack. Then, I stamped with Rich Razzleberry using the diagonal stamp, thus creating the cross-hatch pattern.


I then stamped the bird using all three colours. I'll be honest that I started it out as a test, but I liked it so it ended up on the card. I then used the Layering Circles and cut out the bird and a scalloped frame for it in Rich Razzleberry and mounted using dimensionals.


I then stamped on white using Basic Black on Whisper White. I then cut it out using the Project Life Framelit kit. I then mounted it on Burlap.

I'm a real fan of how the background turned out. I'm definitely going to try this with some other colours.

Hi readers - thanks so much for stopping by. We have an awesome Blog Hop today - Make sure you sign up to receive my blog posts via email so you don't miss out. Click here to do it now.

We have some incredible projects to show you today. What we are MOST excited about is having the talented Julie Davison from the US hopping along with us.

We met Julie and her husband in Barcelona in May 2016. It was a funny story ..... before the cruise, we were touring the amazing Sagrada Familia. I was looking at a scale model and I noticed that there was a woman smiling at us. I thought 'Do I know you?' I said to Kylie 'Do you know that lady?' Turned out to be Julie. Hahahahahaha!

Inspiration

So, not only are we hopping with Julie, but the theme for the hop is 'Case-ing Julie Davison.'

There is a card of Julies that I really like.


Aside from being a nice card, it is using the Detailed Floral Thinlits die in an alternative way. So, that was my starting point - use the Detailed Floral Thinlits in an alternative way.

My Card

Here is the card I ended up with;


I started with a small square of Whisper White card stock and using the smaller of the two detailed framelits, I ran the piece through the big shot. I rotated the card stock 180 degrees and cut again.
Using the edgelit, I then cut along the edge (both sides).



To make the base layer (under the white piece), I started with a square piece of Soft Suede. I aligned the edge lit with the edge of the piece of Whisper White and cut (both sides).

I cut two small layers of Delightful Dijon and Soft Suede and two strips of the burlap ribbon.


Finally, I stamped on a piece of whisper white with Delightful Dijon. As a final change to the card, i used the edgelit to cut out the sentiment. This was then mounted on a card.

THANKFULNESS!

My Card

But after that, I kept on noticing that the rest of the kit remained in the box. And, every time I looked at it, I thought 'Those leftover pieces would make a really nice card.' So, I made three different designs, one of which I will show you today.

I started with a black card. The kraft paper is normally used for a paper bag. I cut it out and mounted it onto the card. It was a nice base. The next layer is normally used inside the cellophane bag. I think the patterns are so awesome. I simply flattened this piece and stuck it down. The other elements are pre-cut and you just have to pop them out of the card stock. I cut a the sequin trim and 'leaves' and mounted them to the card. Finally, I stamped the sentiment on the White card stock and mounted that on the top. What do you think of the alternative use of this project kit? The kits are so so awesome - all you will need are the kite, adhesive, ink and a stamp set. But, if you have some leftover pieces (and invariably you will - why not try using them in alternative ways? Full List of Participants in Blog Hop
