I did Project LifeⓇ last year but chose not to do it this year so using the Record It collections for something other than Project LifeⓇ is right up my alley. I love the sentiments and knew they would make for some beautiful cards.
Supplies: Record It- Pretty Things: 6 X 6 pad; Cardstock and Journaling Cards; Cut and Paste- Presh: enamel dots; Misc: Clear Stickers & Doilies: SRM Stickers, Twine: Divine Twine
On this first card I used one of the 3 X 4 cards as a focus so it made for a quick and easy creation. I just layered some pattern paper pieces, stitched then adhered a doily. I tied some twine around the card, adhered it and stitched it down. Then as a final touch I sprinkled a few enamel dots.
Next I chose two of the 3 X 4 cards, angled them at the top of the card base, and adhered. I layered on some pieces of the pattern paper along the bottom then just stitched everything down. I added a clear sticker and tied on some twine.The main cluster of roses has been fussy cut from one of the pattern papers and mounted on foam squares. Finally I just embellished with some enamel dots.
For this third card I decided to layer two of the 4 X 6 cards together. I then cut one of the 3 X 4 cards into two pieces and adhered them at the top. I added a clear sticker and doily then just did some random stitching.
Just a note, I always create my card fronts first. When they are complete I then adhere them to a card base. That way the stitching and stapling does not show on the inside of the card.
