Crazy Crafters Blog Hop with Martha Inchely

Hi again!

It’s time for another Crazy Crafters Blog Hop and today we’re joined by special guest Martha Inchely.

Martha is part of the Stampin’ Up! Artisan Design Team, and if you stop over and check out her blog, you’ll see why.  She is one talented lady!!

It took me a while to decide which of Martha’s projects to CASE (Copy and Selectively Edit).  She has some amazing fancy fold cards that I’m definitely going to give a try, but I’m a sucker for mini cards and when I saw these 3”x3” cards, I just had to CASE them 😊

For my 3"x"3 cards I decided to use the Naturally Eclectic suite.  I love the bright colours and patterns in the Naturally Eclectic Designer Series Paper and think they look amazing when paired with the Eclectic Layers Thinlits Dies.
To create each of my cards, I started off with a Whisper White card base and a piece of the
Naturally Eclectic Designer Series Paper which I cut slightly smaller than the card base.  I then die cut a number of images from the Eclectic Layers Thinlits Dies.

For my first card I die cut the flower using Whisper White cardstock and watercoloured it using Berry Burst and Lemon Lime Twist ink.  I then die cut another piece of Whisper White cardstock using the Lots of Labels Framelits Dies and attached it to the flower.  The sentiment is from the Tabs for Everything stamp set and is stamped in Basic Black ink.

 
For my next card I die cut the diamond using Soft Sky cardstock and attached it to a piece of Whisper White cardstock I punched out using the new Everyday Label Punch.  The sentiment is from the Teeny Tiny Sentiments stamp set and I also used Clear Wink of Stella on the diamond to add a bit of sparkle.

For my last card I die cut the large flower using Berry Burst cardstock and the leaves which i had stamped in Emerald Envy.  I attached these to a Whisper White circle I die cut using the Layering Circles Framelits Dies.  The sentiment I used on this card is also from the Teeny Tiny Sentiment stamp set.

That's it from me for today. Please feel free to leave a comment.  I love hearing from you all!

Don't forget to take a look at the rest of the blog hop as there's plenty of fantastic creations and inspiration.

Thanks for stopping by!
