Krafty Chicks Challenge #713: All Occasions

  Happy Krafty Chicks Thursday to you!

 
Welcome to another great challenge week from the Krafty Chicks Challenge Blog.
 

All Occasions is the theme. Just create something that is suitable for any special event, like wedding, sympathy, thank you and so on.

I needed to create four Thank You cards for last months customer orders. And I've been itching to try the Stack, Cut, Shuffle card. So this was the perfect time to try it.

All you need to do is stack your pattern paper. I need 4 cards so 4 DSP. If you need 3 or 5 cards, stack 3 or 5 layers respectively. Then create as many pieces by randomly cutting the stacked dsp. After each cut, I laid the stacked pieces in order.

Now it's time to shuffle. I created 4 layouts making sure I used 4 different pieces per layout.

And because I couldn't decide which border I wanted, I thought they both looked great, I decided to make two of each.

Then I couldn't decide if I wanted a white label or a pink one. So again just made two of each to create 4 different cards that are pretty much the same.

Products used:

  • Another Thank You stamp set (retired)
  • Pink Pirouette (retired) and Basic White (159276) card stock
  • Bright & Beautiful DSP (161449)
  • Blueberry Bushel (147138) ink pad
  • Sheer ribbon (retired)
  • Tinsel Gem 4 Pack (161623)

 

 

I like to keep the inside of the card and the envelope clean and simple by just adding some DSP. I also thought since the card base was a light colour that it didn't need a white layer.
