Hi everyone! I hope everyone had a great holiday. I took time to enjoy family and I wound up with a nasty cold that took awhile to get over. But I’m back with my first Eileen Hull project of the month and the theme is Card Bonanza. I used an assortment of dies, stamp set and an embossing folder to come up with this uplifting card. Let’s get started!
I used a piece of cardstock and the Mini Album Diecut to create the base for my card. All I had to do was fold the diecut in half. Next I cut a piece of patterned cardstock slightly smaller than the base. I inked the edges with a hot pink chalk ink before gluing to the card.
I used an assortment of patterned cardstocks along with a plain piece of cardstock which I embossed with the Lacy Leaves A5 Embossing Folder. I lightly inked the embossed cardstock with a mix of hot pink and regular pink chalk inks before adhering all strips of cardstock to the base of the card.
I found in my stash a wreath from the Wreath and Snowflake Thinlits and a garland from the Winter Garland Thinlits (retired) already cut out. I glued both to the center of the card. The lamb is a leftover piece I had fussy cut from cardstock. I shaped the leaves and made an indention in the center of the largest flower with a Stylus before adding Foam Pop Dots to the back of the lamb. I placed that off center of the wreath and garland.
Next I cut one large and two of the medium size hearts from the Envelope, Folder and Flowers Thinlits. I inked the edges of all the hearts with a pink chalk ink before adhering all to the card.
I cut three small flowers and a large flower with center flower from the Windowsill Flowers and Vase Thinlits. I cut four leaf sprigs from the Home Sweet Home Thinlits. I shaped with a Stylus and glued all to the lamb. I placed Yellow and White Gems to the center of each flower.
I placed the “I’m Here for You” sentiment from the Swatch Cards Stamp Set onto the MISTI Stamping Tool and inked with Black Ink. I stamped onto a piece of cardstock, cut to size and inked with pink chalk ink. I adhered to the upper edge of the wreath and garland along with a mini flower to finish.
