Paper Craft Crew Challenge #232 - Carousel 16th Birthday Easel Card



Hi and welcome to the Wednesday card sketch challenge at the Paper Craft Crew.  We hope you will join us and create with this sketch below.





I've just received a brand new stamp set called Carousel Birthday which I've teamed with Cupcakes and Carousels Designer paper stack for this card.  I've stayed fairly true to the card sketch for the card front, but decided I would make an easel card for another upcoming 16th Birthday for a friend of my daughter.  Yes she's just turned 16 and so will all her friends this year.





The cardstock used is Basic Black, Very Vanilla and Watermelon Wonder.  This is the front panel below which I've used for the sketch.  Layering Oval framelits were used for the greeting.




Here's a closeup of the base of the card.




I used the Large Number dies to create the number 16 from the negative of the die.  The black 16 was taken out and used on another card and I then mat the black onto the Watermelon Wonder.   The 16 panel forms the anchor to stand my Easel up.  Here's a side of view of the card below so you can see how it stands.




Thanks so much for stopping by today.  We hope you will join us this week at the Paper Craft Crew.  
Enjoy your day.

Hello Everyone, Welcome to our Wednesday card sketch challenge at the Paper Craft Crew.  Here's our sketch this week    I'm using some designer papers called Merry Moments combined with Festival of Trees stamp and greeting from Teeny Tiny Sentiments.  The cardstock used is Whisper White and Smoky Slate with inks of Old Olive and Real Red.  The greeting comes from the Teeny Tiny Sentiments stamp set and has been punched out with the Washi Tape punch. Here's a closer look.  I love how the Designer papers add so much colour this this card.  The Festival of trees stamp has been combined with the Tree punch for this card. Thanks so much for joining me this week to view my card.  For more inspiration please visit the Paper Craft Crew challenge and see what our other Designers have created this week. Have a great day.

Light up your Christmas

Hi Everyone, You all know how I love my Easel Cards right?  Well I've added a little light to them in the form of the little battery operated candles.  Neil bought me some boxes of them online.  I've been playing around with a couple of different designs which are for an upcoming class of very Special Christmas cards with my group but thought you might like to see them.  This is the first one I've done using the retired stamp set Christmas Lodge.  It's a gorgeous set with this beautiful tree and really suits a vintage style Christmas Card.  I've also used the Deco Label Framelits which are fast becoming a favourite and the Beautifully Baroque and Fancy Fan Embossing Folders. The Cardstock is Cherry Cobbler, Early Espresso, Crumb Cake and Very Vanilla. I have the light on so you can see the gorgeous effect from the little candle.  Here is a photo when it's off. This is how it looks from the side.  It's like a tent.  Extra card was added to the len
