Hi!

 Hi! A Greeting Card


Hello Dear Friends,

I got the design for this greeting card from a Scrapbook.com card challenge. The design was the challenge. 
(This card was not submitted for the challenge.)



This is a standard A2 size card made with white cardstock and matted with black cardstock.
I got the papers in a kit from Create and Craft (now HobbyCraft) a long time ago. I love the colors. It comes with pop out pieces too (I used two of them here).

I used gold Thin Line Dazzles (Paper Wishes) strips to outline the card front and the two pieces.
I glued on a key over the keyhole image. The glue I like to use is from Tonic Studios. It is Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive.
I added some pink rhinestones, and the sentiment (also Paper Wishes).






















Thanks for stopping by,
Lis

CATS! a Card

 CATS! a Card


Hello Dear Friends,


I love all animals, but I have a special place in my heart for cats.
I collect various cat dies. I think seeing them brings me back to the kitties I've had over the years.  I don't have any cats right now. The dies I used below are from Paper Wishes, Spellbinders, Art Impressions and Amazon.



This card is a standard A2 size card made with white cardstock and layered with vellum with a rose pattern. 

I love color block dies because I think that collage works well with them.  While getting my die I stumbled over my cat dies and had this card idea. I was envisioning layering the outline but once I saw the die cut (1/16 inch wide) I changed my mind LOL!
I used one die cut and adhered it with glue to the card.
I cut the cats from a copper mat mirror card. All were adhered with foam squares. I decided to cut one of them from a holographic card instead. 
I added Chitchat words (Tim Holtz) and used alphabet stickers to spell out CAT.
The cats are die cut from a copper mat mirror card.
