World Traveler

Hi There! Today's card features this beautiful world map paper from Authentique paired with Simple Stories brown plaid paper. I die cut the square scallop using Spellbinders' Nestabilities. The brown plaid was freehand cut. I also did the compass by hand. I cut the background paper into 1 x 1/2" strips then cut again to form triangles. I then glued the triangles together to form a mariner's compass. It is popped onto the cream cardstock using 3-D foam tape. The numbers are from a strip of the Authentique Abroad Voyage paper. I added some stitching to finish the card. This would be a wonderful masculine card for Father's Day.

Supplies:

Papers: Authentique (Abroad Voyage), Simple Stories (Generation)

Inks: Rangers Distressing ink

Accessories: brad?

Tools: Spellbinders (Square Scalloped Nestabilities)

Butterfly season

I used the same lovely butterfly from Impression Obsession again on this week's card. 

I am loving working with that die.  It cuts beautifully, the two layers line up perfectly (well, as good as my old eyes work anyway!).    The circle is cut with a Spellbinders circle...use your choice of size.

Supplies:
White and black cardstock
The golden brown is the reverse side of the Glitz designer paper I've been using for the last couple of cards, the Chevron is Hippity Hoppity paper from Echo Park...and is mounted directly to the card front.
The bow is tied around the top cardstock layer only...from the circle to the edge.  It is crinkly paper ribbon from May Arts that looks like rope until you fan it out...CAREFULLY!  Ask me how I know!

A Poinsettia Christmas

This week I have a little bit different card...and I'll have a bonus later in the week!

For this card I used the Spellbinders poinsettia die.  It does make for a lovely flower, don't you think?  I shaped the petals by placing them on my soft stamping mat and using my stylus to make the petals cupped.  Kittie has a wonderful tutorial on her blog.  Please check it out.

All are available at A Scrap N Place...
Cardstock: Vanilla, Red, Green
Patterned Paper: Authentique Diverse
Accessories: Various ribbons and trims from May Arts, Rhinestones, dimensionals.
