Winnie and Walter | Card Making without Dies | Take One

Hi there! First of all, thank you so much for spending your Saturday here.  I am honored to be Winnie and Walter's June Leading Lady. I been working hard this past month creating a few cards with the wonderful Spring release.

I have been a longtime fan of Winnie and Walter and in January, I had the pleasure of meeting Shay at CHA in Phoenix. Our friendship was instantaneous and I absolutely love her zest for anything crafty plus she is super fun.

When Shay asked to be a leading lady, I was so excited, of course I had to postpone for a few months as we just moved into the house from the camper and into the house. Then baby Justin was born 3 days after moving in!

Fast forward a few weeks, I got the chance to work on a few cards and today I am showing you a card made without dies!




First I used the grateful sentiment from The Big, the Bold and Blessings stamped over and over in black ink on the card base. Next, I trimmed the white card stock to fit 1/4 of the card base and stamped the leaves from In Bloom: Lola's Bouquet with Joni Andaya . Then, I stamped the sentiment from The Big, the Bold and Blessings on the card front. 

The pink card stock was then adhered to the card front, then glued over the card base. On a separate sheet of card stock, I stamped more leaves and flowers from In Bloom: Lola's Bouquet and fuzzy cut those to be placed over the stamped leaves on the card front. 

This card can be replicated with different sentiments and color schemes. I love how simple it was to make, and the flowers really are the focal point.

Giveaway:

Now, as your June Leading Lady, I been given a $30 gift certificate to pass on to you. All you have to do is comment on my Winnie & Walter posts on my blog! At the end of the month, I will draw a name from the comments! I will be posting every Saturday, so if you comment on each post you have 4x the chances of winning.


That is all for now, hope you join me next Saturday for another card! Have a fabulous week.

Crystal
