Enjoy creating a new card. Start by scoring the card at 4 1/4" x 5 1/2". The blending needs to be done around the edges of the card front with the distressed ranger inks. Die-cutting of the Ellentina die from at least three of the Miss Caroline 6x6 designer papers to do the paper piecing. Then die-cut, with the same die, three times from very vanilla to create the dimension. With an acrylic block place, the sentiment "you can do anything you put your mind to" by Simon says stamps, in an arc on the block. Use the watermark ink from gina k to stamp the sentiment on the early expresso cardstock. While it's still wet sprinkle embossing powder over the watermark stamped cardstock and use the heat tool until satisfied with the result. Using the circle infinity dies from Hero arts to make the sentiment banner and scissors from tonic Tim Holtz to clip the ends of the banner. Using the 5" Xyron run all the die-cuts from Ellentina die and start stacking the very vanilla shapes followed by the top layer being the Miss Caroline designer papers. I chose to place the different colors of designer paper in the large area, the small areas, and on the top circle moon to the howling wolf. Cut the crumb cake 3 1/4" x 4 1/4" and early expresso 3 6/8"x4 6/8" and layer the crumb cake onto the center of the early expresso adhere the two onto the card front center. Finish by adhering the wolf to the crumb cake and sprinkling a few gold sequins. Thank you for reading my blog and website. Join us again next Friday for a new blog.
