A stripey anniversary

I recently watched a video by Jennifer McGuire which prompted my attempts to copy it and resulted in today's card.  If you want to see the original it is on You Tube - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vEmOPEQCpeo

I cut scraps of card into strips of differing widths and laid these on a double sided sticky sheet.  After pressing these down well I die cut a sentiment from the striped piece and again from white card.

I stamped the sentiment on the white card in rhubarb stalk ink from Memento, which matched one of the stripes really well, then added tiny foam squares to the back.

I ran another piece of white card through the big shot using a stitched die from MFT and layered the striped panel in between.  The sentiment then slotted into the opening.

I used the same rhubarb ink for the happy and added the panel to a matching card blank.

Hope you like it.  TTFN Jude xx

Simon Says Stamp April Card Kit

It's Friday - yay!

It has been a really long week at work and I am looking forward to a less stressful weekend.

Hopefully I will get some crafting in as I am running out of things to blog - lol.

This card is made using my Simon Says Stamp card kit for April and inspiration from Vicky P.

Vicky's You Tube channel had an inspiration video on making 10 cards with the kit.  I developed one of her ideas and made this card.  The video can be found at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6YMcEiNehmY

The kit contains enough to make about 30 cards if you are frugal (I'm not!) and Vicky's ideas can provide loads of inspiration.  Check out her channel!

I used one half of a piece of 6 x 6 paper, 3 stickers and a piece of the sticker sheet edging to make this card.

Hope you like it.  TTFN Jude xx
