Global Design Project #327 - Love - Valentine

Today I have  created for this weeks Global Design Project. 

 The theme is Love- Valentine

I have created my card using the gorgeous Sweet Talk Designer Series Paper and the fun Playful Alphabet Dies. I love the fresh look of the DSP against Basic White card stock.

1. Start with a Basic White card base measuring 21cm x 14.9cm scored and folded in half
2. Cut another piece of Basic White card stock to measure 10cm x 14.3cm
3. Cut a piece of the Sweet Talk DSP  with heart rows into a 10cm x 2.5cm. Roughly the size of two rows of hearts 
4. Then cut a !0cm x 3.5cm pice of the Striped DSP and glue the heart DSP to the top then glue to the bottom third of the Basic White layer measuring 10cm x 14.3cm
5. Tie a 12cm length of the Real Red ribbon to the centre of this and secure at the back with glue dots.
6. Secure the card front layer to the base card using Dimensionals
7. Fussy cut the heart from the DSP and secure it to the right hand side of the layers with Dimensionals
8. Die cut the word "you" out of the DSP using the Playful Alphabet Dies and glue below the DSP and ribbon layer on the card front
9. Fussy cut the word "Love' out from the DSP. Then adhere it to the Card front using Mini  Dimensionals

This was a lot of fun to make. The Sweet Talk DSP is so cute.

Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you are making Valentine's Day cards this year!

Take care!

Global Design Project #326 - Sketch

 Hello and welcome to my blog post. I really enjoyed creating for the Global Design Project last week. I have some extra time to get in the craft room at the moment and wanted to join in the fun again this week for the Global Design Project Sketch challenge. 

I have had the very sweet Easter Friends stamp set and had not had a chance to use it until today. I thought a sweet Easter card would work well with this sketch. 

Here is the GDP Sketch.

Easter Friends Card 

1. Start with a Basic White card base measuring 21cm x 14.8cm scored and folded in half
2. Cut another piece of Basic White card stock to measure 10cm x 14.3cm
3. Cut a piece of the Daffodil Delight DSP to measure 9.7cm x 10cm and glue this to the layer above. Then adhere both to the card front paying attention to the scallops on the DSP
4. Cut a piece of White Vellum to measure 7.5cm x 7.5cm and use glue at the centre of this th adhere to the card front
5. Use a layering Circle die to die cut a circle. Then stamp the grass in Granny Apple Green ink on the bottom of the circle. Adhere this to the card front  in the centre of the Vellum using Dimensionals
6. Stamp the Duckling in Memento™Tuxedo Black ink on a piece of Basic White card stock then colour with So Saffron, Daffodil Delight and Pumpkin Pie Stampin' Blends. Fussy cut the Duckling with Paper Snips. Pop up on circle layer using Dimensionals
7. Stamp the sentiment in Daffodil Delight and cut the sentiment out close to the words using Paper Snips. Use dimensionals and glue to adhere this on the top of the Duckling
8. Cut a 10cm length of the Bumblebee Gingham Ribbon and glue this to the circle layer using Tear n Tape. Under the Ducklings feet. Snipping the ends on an angle
9. Glue one Pale Papaya Loose Flower Flourishes to the circle layer using glue

Many thanks for stopping by my blog today!

I hope you like my sweet Duckling card. It came together quite easily. I would encourage you to join in the fun of playing along with the Global Design Project. I have been a huge fan of their projects for many years now.
