~ Reach For the Stars ~

Good morning and thank you for stopping by!  Today I have a fun project incorporating plaid and some fun new dies/stamps from Our Daily Bread Designs. 
 
This time I started with a 5.25 x 5.25 black card stock base, adding a mat of red, green and a dash of plaid. 


I stamped the sentiment on white card stock with black ink.

 
And added a star accent using
layers from the following dies...
 
Plaid layer...
 

 
White Card Stock Layer 


and the final gold layer
 

 
Fun and so easy to put together!  Next time you put a card together, try using a large white space!  I love how it opens this card up and really accents the plaid. 
 
Thanks for stopping by!  Until next time, blessings...

~ Good Friends ~


Happy Friday!  Today, I have a simple card using a
few items from Our Daily Bread Designs. 
The colors are a trendy gray, black and white palette. 

I started with a gray 5.5 x 4.25 card base and added a white CS mat.  I selected some beautiful star themed silver/gray and white paper from the Winter Paper Collection and used the largest rectangular die base (Flourished Star Pattern Die) to cut my decorative panel.
 
 
CSBD75 - FLOURISHED STAR PATTERN DIE
 
I stamped the sentiment from
Reach for the Stars on white paper
and custom cut a banner and black mat.
 
G603 - REACH FOR THE STARS
 
I nestled a gray die cut on top (under the sentiment panel)
 using an earlier release Quatrefoil Pattern Die.
 
CSBD30 - QUATREFOIL PATTERN DIE
 
The seam binding bow is a custom dyed bow.  I used a black distress ink and some sparkling Angel Glimmer Mist to make my own...  I love the gray distressed look!  Thanks for stopping by! 
 
Until next time,
 
Blessings...
