Hiya Arty friends and welcome back to the blog! Today I'm sharing two cards featuring a host of products from the "A Country Life" release from Sue Smyth so let's get into it!
Products used today are the A Country Life 12 x 12 Paper Collection, Made With Love Stamp, Country Borders Die Set and the Cracked Mud A6 Stencil.
For Card One, I wanted to make the background paper look like a jam jar, so I used the scalloped edged die on the green and olive check paper three times, then lined them up overlapping each other a little and glued them down onto my strawberry paper base. I cut an oval white piece of cardstock, and have stamped on the Made With Love strawberries image in Antique Linen Distress Ink to give a subtle bit of texture behind the stamped sentiment. I added three cut apart pieces from the paper collection to complete the 'label' and foam mounted it to my card.
For Card Two I used the wood panel patterned paper as my background and added the leafy vine die cut along the left hand side that I swiped the tips of in Old Paper Distress Ink. Again I added an oval as my centrepiece, this time using the Old Paper Distress Ink over the Cracked Mud stencil for a bit of background texture and again stamped the sentiment from the Made With Love stamp set. I fussy cut out my three images and attached them to the left hand side. I have foam mounted this to the centre of my card.
If you give these cards a go or use them as inspiration we'd love to see your project! Join our Creative Hive on Facebook to share, or use the hashtag #beearty on social media!
