My sister and I decided to create a monthly challenge for card making. We choose a Youtube video that features a cardstock only project. The video is by Gerry's Craft Room. It was a true challenge to put aside all of the embellishments and decorations I would normally use.
I started with three colors of 110lb cardstock and a Cuttlebug embossing folder. The folder is called Blossom Dance by Anna Griffin. I love the floral pattern of this folder.
I cut the pieces so that they would be nicely layered. The embossed piece is the top layer. I use double sided sticky tape from Sookwang.
I used the same shades of cardstock for the diecuts. All of the dies are unbranded. I cut the leaves apart and used them around the flowers.
We would love for you to join our challenge. Add your picture to the below link - you do not have to have a blog to participate. The challenge is open from now until April 15, 2020. There will be a die cut package as the prize (for US addresses only). The winner will be randomly chosen from all posts.
This was a really difficult challenge which surprised me. So hard not to reach for glitter, pattern paper, or stamps. It was a great exercise and I love how my card turned out.
