Simple black and white paper can make very elegant cards. This is why this week’s facebook live features no colouring the True Love paper from Stampin’ Up!
The kit for the event did contain some coloured card stock. This is an easy way to add colour without the need to colour anything. Embellishments are another great way to add a little something.
Cutting instructions for the kit are as follows
- Rococo Rose card stock (now retired and no longer available at the time of writing) – 14.9 x 21.0 cm scored and folded in half at 10.5 cm
- Basic White card stock
- 10.0 x 14.4 cm (for inside the card)
- 8.0 x 10.0 cm which is then die-cut using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. TIPs – use both dies at the same time and some washi tape to hold them in position while cutting. Die cut in the centre of the piece of Basic White and do not throw the remaining border away.
- Basic Black card stock – scrap at least 6.5 x 9.5 cm for using the same dies as those for the Basic White card stock.
- True Love double-sided paper
- 3.0 x 10.5 cm
- Large flower images of choice. Fussy cut these from the paper.
The card above and the one immediately below were made before the event. I did however, talk through how each of them are put together. A differing combination of glue, dimensionals and items from the kit make for 2 very different looking cards.
The last card below was make live. I’m sure some people find it funny how my thought process works. There’s a fair bit of talking to myself!
