Design Team Inspiration - Rainbow Flowers

Hello everyone!
It's Erika here to share a new fun card with you today.

 
I wanted to make a card with lots of color this time so I decided to do some stamping in the colors of the rainbow using the Flower Power #2 stamp set.  

To make this card I cut my card base to an A6 card using some white Bazzill cardstock. I cut of about 1 centimeter from the front to make it a little bit shorter than the back.

Then I stamped my flowers on white cardstock using various Distress Inks and cut them out. When I had them all cut out I started adhering them to the edge of the card front, trying to make them hang over the edge so the front would be as wide as the back again.


Finally I added some washi tape and drew some faux stitching lines around the flowers and beside the washi tape. 

For my sentiment I used the word "just a note" from the All Occasion Sentiments #1 stamp set.


Here is a closeup of the card. Hope you like it.

Design Team Inspiration - Silhouette

Hello everyone!
It's Erika here to share a fun card with you today. As usual it is quite simple and easy to make.

I have a stamp set sitting on a shelf in mu craft studio that I really love, but I just haven't found a way to use it on a card yet. So I challenged myself and decided that today I was going to make a card with that set. The set I am talking about it the lovely Natures Treasures stamp set.

To make this card I cut my card base to an A6 card, that is a standard size here in Sweden, I guess even in Europe (?). An A6 card is about 4 1/8" x 5 3/4". I used my Distress Inks from Tim Holtz and a few foam applicators and started adding colors directly to the card base. I then tried to make something of a landscape. I should probably have looked up what a sky looks like before starting to add my colors though, I realized that the ones I chose probably wasn't the best ones. But to be honest it doesn't really matter.

After I had colored my background I started stamping with Archival Jet Black ink from Ranger. I didn't really plan where to stamp and perhaps I could have done a better job stamping, but as usual I just try and get things done. I am not one of those "perfect" crafters, I make loads of mistakes and I am ok with that. Nobody knows what the finished project was supposed to look like so no one can complain either, right? ;)

For my sentiment I used the word thank you from the All Occasion Sentiments #3 stamp set.

I have also made a short video of me making this card, you'll find the video on the bottom of this post.

Hope you like the card.
