Hello there...I am back again with more to share, this week will be a busy one on the blog...I will have cards everyday! So today I get to give you a little sneak peek of the new sets being released at My Time Made Easy in July. They will all be available for purchase on July 1st, this Thursday! I am previewing a new set called Killer Curves, a kind of companion to last months set Killer Curves: Fancy Frames. I just love the cool frame images and the floral images in the set, they are really pretty and definitely very useful!
For my first card I used my favorite frame, the polka dot frame and clear embossed it, then trimmed it out. These frames do fit with last months cut files but I don't have a digital cutter so I did it by hand, using scissors for the outside and a craft knife for the inside. The floral image was inked with green and melon by simply inking the green first and then wiping it off the flower portions with my finger, then adding the melon with a dew drop pad. The sentiment is from So Sentimental and the pattern on the bottom is from Puckered Up Patterns.
For my second card I used a more plain label and again trimmed it, then die cut a circle from kraft cardstock to fit in the center. I clear embossed the floral image then sponged ink around it, totally different color palette, kinda feels fallish to me. The sentiment is from another new set that I will sneak peek tomorrow.
You can see how I trimmed just a little bit off the outer edge of the card and added a rust colored strip inside, first stamping it repeatedly with the floral image. I tied one simple piece of twine along the scalloped edge. I really like how this card turned out, clean and simple!
