Good Monday Morning! I’m starting off the week with the blues…not a blue mood just a couple of blue cards. My favorite color is blue, so I thought it would be fun to create a blue card each Monday. And hopefully, put a new spin on the Monday Morning Blues.
A week ago last Saturday, I got together with my good friend and upline, Jeanie Stark to participate in the SU’s Creativity Now event. The event featured the new Peace on Earth suite of products that you’ll be able to purchase tomorrow. One of the cards presented was a pretty sympathy card here….sorry for the grainy photo but this came off of the SU website.
I decided to add a few more layers to my card, because I do love layers! And then created a second card using a few different products from the same Peace on Earth bundle.
This is a very beautiful suite and can be used in many different ways and for many different occasions. I especially love the dove dies.
Here’s the details….
Each card begins with a Basic White card base: 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 scored at 4 1/4, colored cardstock panel: 5 3/8 x 4 1/8, (3) colored cardstock strips: 3 5/8 x 7/8 and (3) DSP strips: 3 1/2 x 3/4. The colors I used for both cards are Cloud Cover and Misty Moonlight.
For the card below…cut Misty Moonlight cardstock at 3 5/8 x 1 7/8 and a Basic White piece at 3 1/2 x 1 3/4 and glue together. Stamp a sentiment on this panel, leaving room for the foliage die cut.
Space each panel evenly over the card front, gluing the thin strips and popping the sentiment panel with dimensionals.
Add the die cut foliage and linen bow to the sentiment panel.
For the card below...cut and layer two labels from the Peace on Earth dies. Stamp a sentiment.
Die-cut a dove, also from the Peace on Earth dies and glue to the sentiment panel.
I really like this card layout as it would lend itself to many different occasion cards depending on the patterned paper and sentiments you used.
Be sure to check out this new suite of products in my online store when they become available tomorrow.
Thanks for starting the week here with me and I hope these cards help beat the Monday Blues!
Take care,
Rosanne
