Global Design Project - GDP232 - Ornate Garden

March 16, 2020

Hello friends. We are casing this fantastic card from Connie Collins. I absolutely love Connie’s style. Every project she creates is so rich with layers and texture. She is a pro!

I played a little off her layout and totally off the colors of this card. I’m loving the end product. This card features sneak products : Ornate Garden. Available April 1.

Boy! What a week. I am so glad there is a sketch challenge this week at TGIF Challenges. I didn’t have it me to create something from scratch it this sketch was just was I needed for a little crafting distraction. How are you feeling? The world is crazy so I’m opting for a bit of normalcy for the minute. Stay safe friends.

My card features new July catalog goodies (The Ornate Garden bundle) that will be available for early purchase in April. You can see more about this bright and cheery suite below. Crafting distraction.

Paper trickery! I used 1/4 inch strips of cardstock to create stripes. I cut these into 1/4 inch strips and offset for a checked pattern. I like how this looks like primitive Halloween decor. #heroarts #halloweencard #cardmakingreels #papercrafting

Happy Halloween! I treated myself to Heroween 13 days of Crafty Treats. I'm a sucker for a good advent calendar, Halloween and super cute dies! I created these two cat cards from the 13 days advent dies and stamps. Cardstock is all Stampin' Up! Cards created for @tgifchallenges inspiration challenge. #tgifc601 #cardmaker #halloweencard #cardmakingideas

You’re a star! I inked up the Sunrays Embossing folder and pressed that ink into the white cardstock, letterpress style. This simple shaker card created with the ‘Shining Stars’ dies. #stampinup #cardmaker #cardmaking #shakercard #cardmakingreels
