Hi All! Welcome back to day 2 of the Kraft-y Hearts Blog Share. This month is all about our favorite goodies from the Seasonal Expressions 1 Idea Book.
Today's project features
Close To My Heart's Operation Smile Stamp Set: You're The Bomb. For ever "
You're the Bomb" stamp set sold, Close to My Heart will donate $3 to
Operation Smile. A cute stamp set and a worthy cause. Pretty good combo, right?
So here's the card:
My son turned 14 in December, so this little easel card was just the ticket. (He's a very outdoorsy kid--and also a video gamer... He's a study in contrasts....) The base of this card is
Kraft Cardstock cut at 4x8 inches and scored at 4 and 2 inches. The front layer (which stands up when the card is folded into the easel) is 4 inches square. I the layers were made with Twilight,
Lagoon and
Champagne Cardstocks and patterned paper from the retired Timberline paper pack. (Oh, the sad day this paper retired!!!) I used antiqued copper studs from the
Rosewood Mini Medley Accents collection to give it dimension and an industrial feel. The numbers are from the retired color-ready cork collection. The sentiment is stamped in Twilight Exclusvie Ink.
Here's a look at it open:
For a little extra panache, I added a heart to the bomb and a couple of
Durables Artisanal Studs to the sentiment.
One more look:
Hope you enjoyed this little card. Now hop on over and see what the amazingly creative
Lynn Darda has to share with you at
From My Bungalow.
Until tomorrow then....
