Stampin' Up! Australia - Dynamic Duos #72 - Fab Friday Challenge - Handbag Card

Dear Stampin' friends,

At Dynamic Duos this week, our colours are Primrose Petals and Blushing Bride. I was asked to do a card for a colleague at work who absolutely loves clothes, handbags, shoes....you get the picture! She was recently featured in Women's Day for her extensive wardrobe - she's quite the fashionista.

Anyway, I hadn't made a "handbag card" for a while and when I saw the sketch at Fab Friday Challenge, I knew it would be perfect as the basis for my card. :) I liked how Cindy Beach used the sentiment from Label Love on one of her 4 panels so I copied that idea on my card.

I apologise for the photo....I find it really difficult to photograph Very Vanilla without the pinks looking fluoro so when I de-saturated the photo, the vanilla looks a bit 'grey'. **sigh**  

 

Be sure to visit the Dynamic Duos Design Team for colour inspiration.....

Stampin' Up! Baroque Motifs on a Handbag card

Hi everyone
Today's card is a really simple card design using the Round Tab Punch and some Oval punches to create little handbags. You just fold the round tab in half and you get the perfect handbag shape!!
For this card I used the Stampin' Up! Raspberry Tart DSP but really any beautiful patterned DSP would do.
I also used the same colour ink applied to the cardstock...eg the Baroque Motifs swirl is inked with Rose Red and applied to Rose Red cardstock. It is a lovely subtle effect.

I hope you like the card and have a try at making it. This card would also look great with the Mocha Morning Specialty Paper, Beau Chateau or Pocketful of Posies from the current Ideas Book & Catalogue....these papers are soooo gorgeous!!!
If you don't have these punches, stamp set or a luscious pack of Designer Series Paper (or anything at all really!!!), just give me a call or email me and I'll get your order sent straight to your door.
