Kylie Bertucci's International Blog Highlights - September 2020

Hi there

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today, hope you are all well :) Today I am participating in Kylie Bertucci's International Highlights Blog, which is showcasing Thank You/Gratitude.

I had so much fun making my cards, I started with an A4 sheet of Whisper White cardstock that I stamped all over with images from Comfort & Hope, Very Versailles, Peaceful Boughs,  Lovely You and Posted For You.

I used Soft Sea Foam, So Saffron, Bumble Bee, Blushing Bride, Crumb Cake, Cinnamon Cider, Terracotta Tile, Cajun Craze, Mossy Meadow, Merry Merlot and Smoky Slate!  Wow, I really did get carried away with lots of different inks...

Here is the end result 
I then cut it up and made five cards! 

My first card is a slimline one, I stamped a few leaves on to the right-hand side of the Cajun Craze card base, layered a stamped panel cut to 14.3 x 6 cms on to Bumble Bee cardstock lauer and punch out a sentiment label using the timeless punch.  My sentiment is from Peaceful Moments and stamped in Cajun Craze.

For my second card, I used a Cinnamon Cider card base, a full sized stamped panel 14.3 x 10 cms, some ribbon and a sentiment from Lovely You.  I fussy cut a few element to embelish the label which was punched from the Label Me Fancy punch.

Card 3 is a 'Z' fold Bumble Bee card base with three stamped panels with the jar from Flowers For All Seasons punched out with the co-ordinating punch and some fussy cut elements. The fussy cut Hello sentiment is from Grace's Garden.

Card 4 - Is a cute design from Lisa Curcio, she does wonderful tutorials, please pop over to see her fabulous tutorial on how to make this card here  :) 

My card base is in Garden Green, with a stamped panel 13.6 x 4.2 cms layered on to Bumble Bee. There is an off cut strip on the inside whisper white panel and my sentiment comes from Lovely You and the die cut from Tasteful Labels dies.

And finally card 5 has a Crumb Cake base, stamped down the left-hand side with the script from Very Versailles in Sahara Sand. My stamped panel is 14.85 x 6.5 cms with two strips of Cajun Craze 14.85 x 0.5 cms on each side.  The sentiment is from Peaceful Moments and punched out with the Label me Lovely punch.

On the inside I used up my three small leftover pieces and so there was nothing wasted! Woo hoo
