The June stamp of the month "It's Your Day To Sparkle" has some lovely images and sentiments especially for celebrating the special events in our lives.
I love scrapbooking but making cards brings me great pleasure knowing that I can share my passion with others in the form of a handmade card.
I found quite a few samples like this card on Pinterest and wanted to make one myself, it's called a U fold card. It's really easy to make but looks so interesting. I used the cake stamp but only stamped the rose cluster then coloured with the shin Han markers. I have also used the single rose on the right of the card. Fussy cutting the roses is quite easy with the Micro Tip scissors.
I found these instructions on Unfrogettable Stamping's blog https://www.unfrogettablestamping.com
The card does lay flat and fits in our standard envelopes but stands up for easy displaying.
For my second card I decided to make a wedding card, using the Mr & Mrs stamps. I heat embossed the images with the gold embossing powder. The gold ribbon adds a nice touch and the pearl ribbon slide is from my stash.
Thanks again for stopping by to continue the hop go to Kara's blog and see what she has created. I do really appreciate it when you take a moment and leave a comment.
Both are fab & thanks for sharing the patter for the U card. I have also heard it called a bridge card. Oh well whatever - its still pretty. I love the gold embossing & shimmer trim on your second card - so pretty.
