Hello my Stampin’ Friends,
How are you this fine Wednesday? I am excited to share a fun card with you today. Yesterday I showed you the Weekly Deals, and one of the items on the list was the “Peek-a-Boo Die” – so I want to show you what I came up with last night….
Do you recognize the designer paper? Well actually, it’s the “Good as Gold” Sale-a-bration Card Kit. I used it because it’s a bit thicker than the designer paper and because I love the gold dots in the design!
I chose the frame I wanted to use on my card and then ran the “Good as Gold” through the BigShot. Now I have my frame with a Peek-a-boo Window! Did you know … You can use the window as a pull down or pull up … how fun is that! It just depends on how you place it onto your card.
I then cut a piece of Whisper White cardstock slightly larger than my frame (2-1/4″ x 2-1/4″). I stamped the “You can never have too much happy” verse from the stamp set “Yippee Skippee!” Before attaching my frame, added some texture by using the xxxx’s from the “Needlepoint Border” Embossing folder. I wanted to bring in a bit more white onto the card so I colored the xxxx’s with our White Stampin’ Chalk Marker. Now I could attach my frame.
I also wanted to add a bit more color to the card front so I added some of the extra paper, and I sliced off a piece of the gold envelope liner! While I was add it … I punched out the “Elegant Butterfly” out of gold. Then I layered the smaller “Bitty Butterfly” from my left over embossed designer paper from yesterday’s project! Waste not, want not! LOL
Finally, to finish off the card … I added the Basic Pearls and then popped up the butterfly with the dimensionals.
Here are the items I used to create this project … Click on the photo to view details / purchase. Please note that the “Peek-a-boo Bigz Die” is on sale for $24.71 and will reflect that when you purchase it during the “Weekly Deals” which ends on the 17th of March.
Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today, I hope you enjoyed today’s card share.
