You can find her tutorial here.

  • 3" x 3" Whisper White cardstock for front (or size of whichever square framelit you use)

    A gorgeous take on this weeks colour challenge. I love the swing card and the "I'm tired of texting" sentiment is brilliant with the typewriter stamp....and I like it too as there's nothing quite like getting a handmade card. Just lovely. Thank you so much for playing along to the Global Design Project with us this week. Louise xo

    Awesome, awesome sentiment! You have tied everything together beautifully!! The image, the colours, the reason for the card. WHo doesn't want to get happy mail instead of a text?! Thanks so much for playing at Global Design Project this week ♥

Envelope Dies perfect for an Acetate Tent card and some new DSP

After creating yesterday's cards I was on a roll and created this one using the beautiful Gilded Autumn DSP and the Fancy Phrases stamp set.  I really love the sentiments in this set.  It is such a simple design and easy to create. You can find all the directions on yesterday's post for Just Add Ink (JAI#518)  I watercoloured the white leaf after I had adhered the gold veins just to soften it, and I added a strip of mint DSP to the front of one of the tent stands as the white was a bit stark. That's the cool thing about this design, you can change it up plenty of ways. I'm sure we can all send these type of cards at the moment. I hope you are safe and well, and staying connected, wherever you are. I hope you have a creative week and remember,  "don't just post online,  post something pretty!" cheers, Liz Product List Ornamental Envelopes Bundle [ 155168 ] $83.50 Envelopes  Dies [ 153531 ] $63.00 Shimmery White A4 Car
