My Creative Time: 57th Edition Release: Sneak Peeks Day 1

Hello and welcome to day 1 of sneak peeks for the My Creative Time: 57th Edition Release! Today we are sneaking the fun new freebie for this release called Card Borders.


I first cut my pattern paper background out using the Stitched Rectangular Frame Dies. Then I cut my card base out to just the size I wanted to frame the pattern paper. I wanted my pattern paper to show as much as possible, so I used a piece of vellum that was cut out using the More Stitched Rectangular Dies. I stamped the fun smaller swirl border onto the sides of the vellum using embossing powder and Versamark Ink. I then cut out another piece of card stock the same size as the vellum piece and just cut it down with the die to fit between the two borders.


I stamped and cut out the adorable little mushrooms out from the Home Sweet Home Stamp Set. I then colored them with Copic markers to somewhat match the colors in the pattern paper. I had colored the little circles with a light blue to make them look like little windows. So I finished the look by adding some Glossy Accents to them as well as a few of the other parts on the mushrooms. I added them to the card and stamped the sentiment as well. It too, came from the Home Sweet Home set. I finished the card by adding a few little sequins.

Products Used:

Copic Markers
Memento Tuxedo Black Ink
Simple Stories: Vintage Bliss Pattern Paper
Recollection's Card Stock and Vellum
Recollection's Snow Embossing Powder
Versamark Ink
Glossy Accents
White Pearlized Mini Sequins
