TRIO OF CARDS/STUDIO FORTY

Good morning! Nicole here with three cards I created using a variety of card sketches. I always struggle making cards, especially A2 size cards.

These sketches really helped me create these cards within minutes and it was fun! Sketches are a great jump start to get your ideas going! Also, keep in mind, you can flip them or use some of the sketch to inspire you!

I think the hardest part of creating these cards was deciding on what patterns to use for the card. I used two patterned papers for each card from the Here and There Collection. I used two metal die frames to cut the papers. To create the card base, cut white cardstock to measure 4.25"x11" and score the paper in half to create the card. The first layer is 4"x5.25" and the second layer is 3.75"x5".

Once the card bases were cut, I paired two cards together that I thought worked well together. Next, I used a variety of Die Cuts to embellish the card. LOVE DIE CUTS. :)

I stamped "so excited" from the All Time Fave stamp set below the summer journey sentiment using a very light pink ink.

For the Adventure card I used a variety of adventurous dies to embellish the card. I used foam squares to pop the cards up a bit.

I super pleased with all three of my cards. Which one is your favorite? I think my favorite is the Summer Journey card. Thank you so much for visiting today!
