Hi Crafters,
Hello and welcome, it's lovely to have you visit me today.
I'm sharing my DT card for the challenge at As You Like It today where we would love to see your creations using your favourite one layer or multiple layer styles.
You must remember to tell us WHY you have chosen this particular style please.
I much prefer, and also find it easier to create a project with multiple layers because I like to have a variety of embellishments, colours and textures on my cards. A clean and simple design is a very daunting prospect for me as I find it difficult to walk away after one layer, lol.
Here is my card...
Recipe
Image - found on the Internet
Papers - Fizzy Moon with Love - Mr & Mrs Paper Pad
Word Die Cuts - Britannia Dies
Corner Die Cut (underneath background) - Marianne Designs LR0281

Satin Ribbon

Stunning card and I just love the image you found and papers chosen. I too like layers, lots of them...xx {aNNie}
ReplyDeletePretty colours and image Lorraine, but it's your use of dies that really caught my eye, so effective how you have them peeking out of the corners.

ReplyDeleteHi Lorraine,
ReplyDeletewhat a super card, and such a great image.
Super design also.

A stunning card. I love the elegance and papers. Beautifully coloured. Elaine
ReplyDeleteThis is so, so pretty! Love the simple elegance of this card. Thanks for joining the Craft-Dee BowZ challenge this month!
ReplyDeleteLorraine, you'd be fine doing CAS, I now find it very difficult to go the other way and layer up as I have got so used to a minimal approach. It would be very boring if we were all the same.
ReplyDeleteA beautiful wedding card, great colour combo and image.
Hugs Erika. x

Lorraine, this is a lovely card. That image is an inspired find, so beautiful and I love your card design with those wonderful die cut details.

Lorraine, you create with layers so beautifully. Layers upon layers of inspiration in every project. The image here is so pretty and I love the corner detailing. The papers are perfect for the theme, filled with sweetness and elegance. Gorgeous work, my friend. Also, I must tell you something. I am unsure how my blogger presence will be for the next tiny bit. Just as things began to calm this week, my sister received a very scary diagnosis. I have taken off this week's DT work and of course my amazing leaders have said to take as long as I'd like to take care of things, but I may try to stay involved so my heart can have the joy that is leaving bloggie love and crafting... despite how hard it feels to make anything. So, if I disappear or do not get here often, I wanted you to know why. Have a wonderful night. :o)
ReplyDeleteHugs and blessings,
Karen
This is full of elegance Lorraine! The shades of blue are gorgeous and the corners look amazing. I too am a fan of layers, you know me I pile as much as I can on my cards.

ReplyDeleteCarol x
I'm crowning you 'Queen of Elegant Cards'! This is gorgeous, loving all the die cuts.
ReplyDeleteWonderful papers for a wedding card Lorraine adding the blue mount and die cuts sets the image of beautifully
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful and elegant wedding card. I love the shading on the die cuts. I agree that generally (I find) it's easier to work with multiple layers than a one layer card. Even my (very few) CAS cards will have a couple of layers at least :) xx
ReplyDeleteGorgeous. Love it all. Thanks for joining us at One Stitch at a Time. Good luck. Maggie, DT
ReplyDeleteLove the way you used all the beautiful dies. The blue really pops on this elegant card. Thank you so much for joining us this time at Crafty Cardmakers!

A really beautiful card Lorraine. You do this so naturally, I do wish I did too lol! Thank you for letting me know what the challenge is, I think I'm too tired or possibly doped because of some new medication, so I am struggling more than I should. Thank you huni Karen x
ReplyDeleteAll the beautiful layers and die cut details on your design create a wonderful elegance that is perfect for a wedding card. I love the blue and white colour combo too...very stylish :-)
ReplyDeleteBig hugs, Kat xx
Great colour combination! Thank you for joining our „Dies & Punches“ challenge over at the Crafty Cardmakers ;o) Happy crafting,
