This week, just use a stencil on your project. I used a layered stencil to create the background of my card above. In my first attempt at this card, I made it much harder than it needed to be (in my opinion). I loved the idea of a domed card given the arched sentiment but decided that all the layers were not necessary. I also simplified the crocuses to a single color rather than distressed petals. The changes made it much easier to make multiples.</span></span><div><span style="color: #222222; font-family: trebuchet;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="color: #222222; font-family: trebuchet;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhsW5SSNYh1iKsQpyEaQFfp5hGktGKlTy5KMiBZ-3KTKahjc0ArU8fzp7YSUOJSXMVG1CqtfnbYnTS1A0zwls0Kmb5DHQHh5yzdOfE-g-cMyQPDWomupFPzcH5hxXuVMg8heALXdyCZLPY1HW3PDm5jdfAyOkNO1vsULqXqIfAp-wz8xfb1CVtbFK2YUuS5/s3751/IMG_2829.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2697" data-original-width="3751" height="230" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhsW5SSNYh1iKsQpyEaQFfp5hGktGKlTy5KMiBZ-3KTKahjc0ArU8fzp7YSUOJSXMVG1CqtfnbYnTS1A0zwls0Kmb5DHQHh5yzdOfE-g-cMyQPDWomupFPzcH5hxXuVMg8heALXdyCZLPY1HW3PDm5jdfAyOkNO1vsULqXqIfAp-wz8xfb1CVtbFK2YUuS5/s320/IMG_2829.jpg" width="320" /></a></div></span><p><span style="font-family: trebuchet;"><span style="background-color: white; white-space-collapse: preserve;">Check out</span> our fabulous guest designer for February, Denise Morgans.

This week, draw your inspiration from the photo above. I focused on the colors and sea theme. My initial attempt was a distressed background heat embossed with a sealife background stamp from Colorado Craft Company. The AHOY sentiment was the final touch. The card did not feel quite right to me. My next attempt (with multiples) was made from stripes of washi and pre-made die cuts from ALLL and Create.</span></span><div><span style="color: #222222; font-family: trebuchet;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="color: #222222; font-family: trebuchet;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwblSJFeYHFAzXe6C2LA2YoKt4SjGT56mZQYqWsYxBV1tA80IBrfQLq-Loeu4Zqn_ca_1i2P6SJ9D1wCSC4wyXpt9WmtI0t-kMxfdrje7aqaS7rbj9I_fzmUOkxspdZSw0O6ucEsW7DeQqZKJQV8J8VKTD2ozHFk5rtZVNBKTHF1vyPpCW5kNpZlD0Aozt/s3478/IMG_2826.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2822" data-original-width="3478" height="260" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwblSJFeYHFAzXe6C2LA2YoKt4SjGT56mZQYqWsYxBV1tA80IBrfQLq-Loeu4Zqn_ca_1i2P6SJ9D1wCSC4wyXpt9WmtI0t-kMxfdrje7aqaS7rbj9I_fzmUOkxspdZSw0O6ucEsW7DeQqZKJQV8J8VKTD2ozHFk5rtZVNBKTHF1vyPpCW5kNpZlD0Aozt/s320/IMG_2826.jpg" width="320" /></a></div></span><p></p><p><span style="font-family: trebuchet;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet;"><span style="background-color: white; white-space-collapse: preserve;">Check out</span> our fabulous guest designer for February, Denise Morgans.

This week, incorporate the word LOVE into your card. I used a cover stamp, coloring in all the hearts, so easy for making multiples. The sentiment is die cut from red Mirracard, and a small love sub-sentiment was stamped and inserted in an "O". Easy peasy. One of the duplicates I made featured a different sentiment and a small mailbox from the 2023 Spellbinder's Advent Calendar.</span></span><div><span style="color: #222222; font-family: trebuchet;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="color: #222222; font-family: trebuchet;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgY-FuOaWrlaT5q-A-5Y6fAv8Tmu1LlEEz9PM3SSW0F-tkS034ZVBqmyQ5NtoSxenEsvfMOjRy0hMOqrk9h15kwBmnLFzl1PLlIVsSy3abcOffnk_bV2d_Cw6BKJuoClqxQEWFklUPYveSHyCiHZgjJ1FimmiU8xWgqopdiKXFeR-mgPb_tunJ31tU_UIS8/s3796/IMG_2827.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2474" data-original-width="3796" height="209" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgY-FuOaWrlaT5q-A-5Y6fAv8Tmu1LlEEz9PM3SSW0F-tkS034ZVBqmyQ5NtoSxenEsvfMOjRy0hMOqrk9h15kwBmnLFzl1PLlIVsSy3abcOffnk_bV2d_Cw6BKJuoClqxQEWFklUPYveSHyCiHZgjJ1FimmiU8xWgqopdiKXFeR-mgPb_tunJ31tU_UIS8/s320/IMG_2827.jpg" width="320" /></a></div></span><p></p><p><span style="font-family: trebuchet;"><span style="background-color: white; white-space-collapse: preserve;">Check out</span> our fabulous guest designer for February, Denise Morgans.

Looks like a lot of fun and I hope to be back often. The Sisterhood of Crafters is challenging us to incorporate <span style="color: #2b00fe;">BLUE</span> into our cards. Retro Rubber is also asking we incorporate blue, specifically a series of the blues (midnight blue, violet blue, sky blue and white). I used a very old Pure Innocence stamp, Warmest Wishes (pre-2000). My blues are subtle in this photo, I used lines of Brusho watercolor powders, wet them and let the colors run into each other. After the watercolor panel dried, I stenciled snow on the card with embossing paste.</span></span><p></p><div><p><span style="font-family: trebuchet;"><span>Enjoy! </span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: "Shadows Into Light"; font-size: x-large;">Elizabeth</span></p></div>

I was inspired by a recent color block quilt that I am making. Translating fabric into paper is not that easy. I die cut lots of 1" squares from miscellaneous scrap cardstock, then free hand cut the diagonals (which may explain why there is a bit of wonkiness in my lines). I can't believe I don't own a triangle die; I'll add one to the wish list. Still I thought the cards were fun thank yous!<p></p><p></p><div><p></p><div><p>Enjoy</p><p><span style="font-family: Shadows Into Light; font-size: x-large;">Elizabeth</span></p></div></div>

I decided use a XOXO background die. This was time intensive because I wanted to inlay all the X's and O's. I love the result. I die cut the panel twice in red and pale pink, made piles of the little X and O bits, covered the back of the die cut panel with scortape and adhered it to a white A2 card base, then began filling all the x's and o's. <div><br /></div><div>The sentiment is layered and die cut from glossy white cardstock. </div><div><br /></div><div>Continuing on with my new year's resolution, I made a second card with the pink XO base. Different sentiment, mounted on vellum. I added a small heart sequin to the inside "O".

I jazzed it up a bit by using the 4th layer twice (flower centers) by applying a layer of Lawn Fawn's Fairy Dust (sparkly paste) on the second pass. As final touches I used an embossing die to decorate the edges, and added a vellum backed, layered sentiment. This sentiment does not come with an outline die so I just fussy cut the vellum.</span></span></div><div><span style="color: #222222; font-family: trebuchet;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="color: #222222; font-family: trebuchet;">Continuing with my New Year's resolution, I made two additional backgrounds (no sentiment) for future use.<br /></span><p></p><p><span style="font-family: trebuchet;"><span style="background-color: white; white-space-collapse: preserve;">Check out</span> our fabulous guest designer for January, Stef Perry.
