A bit later than promised as I just had to tell you about the Weekly Deals being offered by Stampin' Up! throughout April first, but here is the card layout that I was playing with previously. Now the sunshine is with us it is the perfect time to be out enjoying the sunshine. Pack a picnic, take a rug and find your spot to sit and enjoy nature in all it's glory!
This card is one I made with a group of lovely ladies this week and they loved the colour combinations of the Elegant Eggplant, Coastal Cabana, Daffodil Delight, and Pear Pizzaz.
The designer papers used for the card were the Afternoon Picnic from the main catalogue. These papers have a selection of patterns to play with; five-sided hex's, chevrons and circles. All of these shapes are featured with the other co-ordinated products, punches and Big Shot framlits.
I started our card with a base of cardstock measuring 13.5cm x 27cm to make a finished card 13.5cm square. The card base is then easily made by creating a diagonal fold on the top of the card and it is the decorative label mounted on the dimensional foam pads which then holds the card in position when opened. The fold line was started from the top left down to the bottom right for the diagonal. Once we had figured out the fold the right way, the ladies were off to a great start!
For our card, I layered up the designer paper with Petite Petals and Papillion Potpourri punched images for a beautiful celebration of spring. See also the Label Love sentiment and Artisan Label also on there for the greeting.
I loved the colours, patterns and the Springtime theme of this one, I hope you do too.
