Last night’s Facebook Live was a mix of cards, starting with this CASE of my teammate Carol Rulli’s beautiful swap card! I am presenting pictures and details here as a quick reference, but you may need to see the video for full details. Click here for the Facebook Live video, and please join the Buckeye Inklings Stampers Group on Facebook to get notice of my live videos.
The Christmas Barn bundle is perfect for a detailed scene like this. I loved Carol’s designer paper choice (from Boughs of Holly) and layout, and I essentially duplicated her card.
While I love a detailed card, I also need some options that are not so labor-intensive, so I created a couple of monochromatic Christmas Barn cards.
The first uses Crumb Cake, Early Espresso, and Merry Merlot, along with the Leaf Fall 3D embossing folder. I also used a greeting from Wildlife Wonder and a leaf from the Aspen Tree Dies.
I added a pop of color with the wreath on this option. The scene is stamped in Gray Granite. There are six Shimmer White snowflakes on this card – fabulous embellishments that you can create with the dies in this bundle! The dies allow you to cut nine snowflakes at a time – and this picture does not do them justice! They are so pretty and delicate!
Moving on, I wanted to show some other fun cards with a pop of color. I was inspired by this fun card made by my teammate Debbie D’Aurelio…
Isn’t this the cutest?! It uses Gingham Cottage designer paper, the Hippo bundle from Sale-a-bration, and Polished Pink pops of color. Love it!!
This one uses perhaps my favorite combination – black & white (again with Gingham Cottage designer paper) with a pop of Real Red. We have so many black & white paper choices right now – including the collection that is called Black & White, Rustic Harvest and Celebrate Everything.
And the final one is my CASE of Debbie’s card, but with a pop of Mango Melody and the Bewitching Bundle. The cardstock around the scalloped shape die measures 2 9/16″ x 3 13/16″ and the Basic White measures 2″ x 3 3/8″. These are super-fun to make, and really you could use any monochromatic paper with a pop of color!
