Martha Stewart's Scroll Heart Deep Edger Punch - Another Weekend with Martha!

Hi everyone!

I continue to get hits on the pages I did with the Martha Stewart Scroll Heart Deep Edger Punch. 

So many of you like that punch and I dont blame you! It's beautiful!  So, I have decided to create some more beautiful designs using this punch this coming weekend.  (In case you missed the original projects, look in my blog starting February 19th.)


Stay tuned!

Geometric Designs - Rectangles and a Summer Flower

Hi everyone and Happy Tuesday!

Today' I want to share with you another card with a pretty geometrical design. 

I love the way that geometric designs are so neat and balanced.  I used to do a lot of geometric art when I was in high school and I still love it today.

I started out with a single color palette of pinks and reds (mostly).  I chose two patterned papers and cut strips 6 1/2", 4 1/4" and 2".  I outlined them in gold then matted them.

I lined up three strips on one end and then was able to easily line up the other strips using the first strips as a guide.  For this type of pattern, it is important to be exact as any difference will cause the strips to not line up exactly. 

I added some petaloo flowers to accent my card and I was done! Very pretty!

Close Up!

I really love the glass embellishment with the dragonfly image inside.  It's just perfect for this summery card.

Here you can see the layers BUT did you know I only used two?  The faux layer is actually where i edged the patterned paper in gold. 

Hope you enjoyed today's card!
