Hi Everybody,Sometimes when you have a lot of cards to make it can be a good idea to make them in a batch
Here I have four card that are created in this way and it is a quick and easy way to work.
By that I mean do all the stamping ... all the die cutting ... all the embossing ... adding all the flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts last and arranging them as you please
They are part of a collection from Make The Day Special
MTDS is a UK based company but they have a lot the US stamps. This is where I have bought the stamps that I have been water coloring
Here is one of the new Avery Elle stamps called Simply Said and there all of these and more are on one sheet. It matches the die that says You which I cut from Craft Foam and again in card. I used double sided tape between the foam and card to glue them together.
I have created my base card and layers with Pierced Rectangles from Spellbinders and the smallest layer has been embossed with Framed Canvas and both are part of the Celebrations Collection
Making cards in this way is excellent if you are making a batch of Thank You cards or invitations. Please click the links to view the products.
More tomorrow ...
Hugs xx

Hi Christina, I make cards for charity and I make them in stages, and I often male like you have the layers, that match the card until I'm really to stamp the greeting, however there is a lady I know who arranges flowers and U.S. Willing to help me, so I'll take all the flowers I have and hope to make flower corners like yours, as they are the stars of the card. Thank you for your inspiration. X Ros
ReplyDeleteHi Christina
ReplyDeleteUsing different colours in the four cards would have been enough to make them look different, but changing the flowers as well just adds the special something

Wonderful idea and so pretty.
ReplyDeleteHi Christina, such beautiful cards, I love them and the floral arrangements you have done on them is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteRegards Liz.
Oh Christina, each card is a star in its own right and all of them beautiful. Great inspiration as usual, thank you.
ReplyDeleteHi Christina
ReplyDelete4 beautiful cards. Thanks fir the inspiration.
Four lovely cards Christina and although the basic cards are the same, they look so very different because of the change in colour and flowers. X
ReplyDeleteWell, this is another stamp/die set that I simply must have! I probably would've looked at this set and thought, no, that's nothing special, but then you come along and make such gorgeous cards with it. You are pretty darn amazing yourself, Christina..and making me buy way too many dies and stamps. lol Now I just need to start making some cards.
ReplyDeleteYes I have done batch making for Thank You cards. These are really striking. Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteSorry I didn't get chance to comment yesterday. Like all these cards. Lovely.
ReplyDeleteWow stunning cards Christina x
ReplyDeleteThey are all gorgeous, love the design!
