CYCI #89

Happy Monday, welcome to the work week. Hope you had a nice weekend. I made a few cards last night in preparation for this week. Work will include some longer days as it’s month/quarter end close  and I’m in the accounting field.  I wanted to make sure I had a few cards to post this week and it was one of other nights when the idea’s just poured.

Today’s card is for the Can You Case It weekly challenge. Thank you to Elizabeth for choosing my card from challenge #88 as a Design Team Member pick, it was fun adding the Mod Podge to my card for glitz, you can see the original post here.

To make my card, I started making a flower using the Festive Flower Builder punch in Cherry Cobbler & Mossy Meadow. For the flower you need 8 large petals, 4 smaller petals, 2 double petals and 3 – 1″ circles, use the circles to anchor each row of petals and stack them with dimensionals. The gold glimmer center is anchored with glue dots. Here’s a hint: normally you stamp then punch, but with this punch it’s better to punch then stamp. The background for the flower is Merry Moments Designer Series Paper, cut randomly matted on Cherry Cobbler on a Whisper White card base.  In the lower right corner is a tag with a sentiment from Reason for the Season done with Gold Embossing Powder, a matching gold glimmer flower tops it off.

Thank you for stopping by today, hope you liked the card. For more product information or to place an on-line order, click on any of the images below. Have a great day, Craft On!
