Simply Elegant

Oh my gosh, isn’t this paper just beautiful.  I designed this card to create note cards for my daughter in law, Julia.  Julia is about all things Art Deco, I think she is going to like these.  I thought ofsetting this design made the card more interesting.  Such a simple and easy card with such a big impact. 

Following are the Measurements and Supplies for today’s Simply Elegant Note Card:

  • I used a Basic Gray Base measuring 8 ½” by 5 ½” Scored and folded at 4 ¼”
  • Next 2 Pieces of the Simply Elegant Specialty Designer Series Paper, first a piece cut 3 ¾” by 5” and a piece cut ½” by about 6 ¼”
  • Then 2 pieces of Smoky Slate one piece 4” by 5 ¼” and a piece of scrap to emboss the birds
  • You will need some Gold Foil to create the frame and small piece of scrap of Gold Foil to cut out the frame for the birds. 

 

Thanks for stopping by.

Hand Penned Memories and More Cards

The Memories and More Card Pack at $10 is an amazing bargain.  I think you can make 20 -30 cards just from the card pack alone.  These card packs can really stretch your dollar! I made seven cards in this video and barely scratched the surface of possibilities. 

 

In addition to the Memories and More Card Pack I used the following material:
  • I used Basic White Bases measuring 8 ½” by 5 ½” Scored and folded at 4 ¼”
  • Matching Cardstocks Highland Heather, Daffodil delight, Pale Papaya, Misty Moonlight, Basic Black, the new Ombre Specialty Paper
  • I used our double Oval Punch
  • and some of our new embellishments

all of the new material will be available on May 4, 2021 when the new Annual Catalog launches

April Ingenuity Inkers Blog Hop

Welcome to the Ingenuity Inkers April 2021 Blog Hop featuring the Hydrangea Haven Bundle 

Here is the card that I made using the Hydrangea Haven Bundle.  The card has a cut-away on either side of the front panel that is 1/2″, and I used some of the spectacular Designer Series Paper for the backgrounds.

                                                           

Here is the card from a side angle:

                                                             

The white panel on the inside is decorated with a 3/4″ strip on the side and a few of the individual flowers and measures 3 3/4″ in width by 4″ in length.  I love the pink, I used Rococo Rose, which is sadly retiring.  The design of this card can be easily used with any flower that comes with a die or punch and matching DSP.  My sentiment says “you make me smile”, but could be converted to a Happy Birthday or a Congratulations card. Here is a look at the inside.

                                                             

As you can see there is plenty of room for writing a note to the recipient.  Here is the video showing how to make the card
