Here is what I love about this card;

Emboss Powder - I really like how white it is! So striking.


Colour - Ive never used this colour on a card. In fact, I had to look up the name of the colour. Ive assembled an image with the card and colour below.


Framelits - I used two sets today. I love how easy and consitent the shapes are.

Today, Im playing along with CAS(E) this sketch! for the first time. Here is the inspiration for the week;


And, here is the card I came up with...


What I set out to achieve with this card;

1. Use the 'Whats Your Type' Stamp Set
2. Clean and Simple card
3. Use ONE colour for the card and image base

What do you think - do you think I achieved this?

Stamp Set

The first time I saw this stamp set was on the Cruise of the Caribbean. In the 'Stampin' Up!' room on the 'Allure of the Seas', I saw Brian King demonstrating it. And, it then appeared in the catalogue.


I just haven't found the right card to use it on - so this one was a perfect opportunity. There are MANY, many other ways to use this set aside from just using it for letters - check out Pinterest. Do you have the set? If you don't, click on the image at the bottom of this post and buy it now.

Clean and Simple

Ive been trying to simplify the cards Im making. Aside from the few goes that it took to get the stamped image right (I know what to do now), the rest of the card was really simple.

I ran the sheet of whisper white through the embossing folder. I then ran three small offcuts of Cucumber Crush, Bermuda Bay and Watermelon Wonder through the folder. I then cut around the image and mounted it on dimensionals. Using the colour pieces of card stock, I simply cut the small triangles and assembled them to match the sketch.


Finally, to highlight the diagonal, I used Silver Cording trim. This fit nicely in the 'valley' created using the embossing folder.

Things I love about this card

White Emboss - As you will see on my cards, I use embossing on ..... every card. This card was no exception.



Words of Truth Stamp Set - I love this set. I really, really, really LOVE this set. I love the sentiments, I love the look.



Moments Like These Stamp Set - I love the 'font' of these stamps. The set comes with all the days of the week individually. But, I assembled them all on the block and stamped the combined image all at once. It comes in Photopolymer and is a part of the Project Life by Stampin' Up! range and is useful for projects other than memory keeping. Click on the image below and you can buy it from my online store right now (Australian residents only - sorry).


Colours - This combination makes me really happy! Below I have assembled an image showing the colours used;
