Plaid Birthday

Hi Crafty Friends,

It's challenge time with my friends over on the CCEE Stampers challenge blog. Being the beginning of the month it is time to introduce our new challenge hostess which is Lois Bak.

Apparently tomorrow (6th April) is National Tartan Day. Create a card using plaid.

I wanted to try out a new die I purchased from Crafter's Companion ... Square Twist Card which makes a Pop Up Book Card. 

To decorate my card I used Stampers Anonymous Hipster stamp set to create a birthday card.

Here is another look at the inside of my card so you can see the folds a little better.

For the front of my card I stamped two of the Hipster images onto a rectangle panel.

Don't forget to check out the CCEE Stampers blog (goes live 12 AM EST) to see the rest of the creations the CCEE Stampers created this week. You can also see more details of their creations on their individual blogs:

Hi everyone,

Today I have been playing with a new (to me) type of construction card. This one is called a Pop Up Book Card. Above is the front of my card …. I used an older stamp set called Once Upon A Wall from Clear Dollar Stamps.



Here is the inside of my card … again the stamps are from the Once Upon A Wall stamp set from Clear Dollar Stamps. To create my card I used a template I found on Bente’s Blog, her template is in centimetres and is a little smaller than another template I found which is in inches but it ended up being 6 x 6 which was pretty large.

Stamps: Once Upon A Wall - Clear Dollar Stamps

Paper: White; Yellow; Blue; Hootenanny DP – My Mind’s Eye; Over The Rainbow DP – Pebbles Inc
