my new recipe at As You See It Challenge 359

Hello crafty friends and welcome to my second card of the day. This time, it’s for our new challenge at As You See It – we’ve got a recipe for you this time round, which I devised. For these challenges, we want you to incorporate all the recipe elements in your card, but how you choose to do that is up to you. I’ve used another of the stamps from Tina’s Flowers Sampler, which filled a few of the requirements on it’s own!

But I’ve also pulled a couple of other challenges into this one, picking up the framed images in Time Out‘s inspiration photo and the focal sentiment also works for Word Power.

So, here’s the details. I found another mop-up piece of card in my stash that had been done with orange inks (don’t ask me when…!) and stamped the ‘happy today’ image onto it in black Archival ink. I could then line up one of the smaller Film Strip doodle frame-it panel dies around the image to cut it out.

I mounted the die cut topper onto a piece of white card and then a layer of Indian Summer companion paper, which I edged with a black Sharpie (I used a ruler for this, because it was paper not card and I didn’t want to slip!). I embossed a frame onto the front of a 5×5 card blank using one of the small embedders and attached the topper to sit inside it.

So, let’s just check that I’ve got all the recipe included: flowers – in the stamped image; frame – there are several with the die cut, the mount and the embedded card front; happy sentiment – within the stamp; punch or die – the film strip frame; shades of orange – on my inky mop-up & the mount. Job done!

  6. I love how you packed all your detail into the central square Deborah as it really adds to the impact and you managed to create a beautiful CAS card too, whilst still incorporating all of the ingredients – bravo!

  7. This is so elegantly crisp, with the decoration all focused into a single, central area. I love that die as it puts me in mind of a hardanger edge on a traycloth. Lovely card – and a lovely recipe for us to play with. 🙂

  8. The film strip made a great frame for your stamping and sentiment, Deborah, and for our challenge. Thanks for sharing your card with us at Time Out.
