Sea a Wonderful Adventure

     I was finally able to get my Sale-A-Bration rewards and was so excited to get up to my card room to use them and I found myself using one of the other ones I already had! I had only got a couple of the 2018 Pre-Order items and the one I decided to go with was the one my Daughter wanted... So glad she wanted it 😉 The Sea of Texture bundle is absolutely beautiful!
     As usual, I head over to Pinterest and see all the beautiful creations everyone comes up with and it makes me fall in love with so many more bundles than I originally liked in the first place. I try to pace myself though and not go overboard 😂... I know... I made a funny! But I do try.
     I came across these beautiful cards by Kayla Macaulay, part of the Stampin' Up! Artisan Team. There is a reason they become part of that team, their cards are just amazing! I just had to CASE her beautiful cards. Changing a few small things of coarse but non the less, she was an amazing inspiration and I thank her for sharing her cards!
     You can see from the link to her cards that I closely CASED her wonderful design. I did do a couple slightly different variations of the one card. I liked the square as opposed to the one she has with a circle. I have to say, this card was the first time I used the Layering Squares dies.
     Her background as you can see, was using the new Subtle Textured Impressions Embossing Folder and I went with a watercolor wash for my background. I am still really loving the watercolor look and I tried something else new to me... The Baby Wipe Technique, giving me a very cool look for the octopus image. This is a pretty simple card to case when you just figure out what colors you want to use. Mine were Bermuda Bay, Tranquil Tide, Pool Party, Rich Razzleberry, Crumb Cake and Champagne Glimmer Paper

Fancy Fold Card

I'm not sure what to call this card as the one I found wasn't in English! I was surfing on Pinterest one day and found an amazing card!! Of coarse I re-pinned it for later cause I had to give it a try myself. The only problem is, its in another language and the measurements are in cm instead of inches. I really wanted to try the card so I printed out her template and tried to convert cm to inches. I made a card with my dimensions and I am fairly pleased with it.   I tried to go fairly simple on the front as the inside is a little bulky. I used a Mojo Monday sketch for the inspiration on for front of the card.  Sketch 319     For the inside I pretty much used her layout but just used different paper.  I am in the Holiday spirit so really wanted it to be a Christmas card.  I haven't used the specialty paper in the Winter Frost Specialty DSP yet so thought it would work perfectly.   She had a template designed, but of coa...

June's Door Prize

I am really excited for this months Card Club because it will be the first time doing it at my house. I cleaned up an end of my basement and we are going to do it there. It will be so much easier doing it at home, I tend to forget things and even thought it was only next door. It was a royal pain in the you know what to go get what I forgot.  I hope it isn't to crowed down there but I guess we will see! ANYWAYS I don't have the cards yet but I have the Door Prize all done! Wallet Style Smash Book I had found a video on Youtube on how this amazing project was done!  I like to have printable instructions so I used the measurements she had for the main wallet and I added the measurements I used for the tags in the wallet and used my pictures. I will add my instructions and hopefully you can print them for yourselves.
