The Cutting Edge Challenge #15

It’s time for the another Cutting Edge Challenge! Our inspiration this week is an amazing card created by Design Team member Amy Kolling.

Here’s my take on her card.

Challenge15I was inspired by Amy’s colors, the snowflake motif and the diagonal lines.

I cut the chevrons with the Triple Chevies Confetti Cuts die and adhered them to the white cardstock base. I stamped and heat embossed a sentiment from Seasonal Sentiments and added silver foil snowflakes, cut with one of the dies in the Let It Snow Confetti Cuts set.

The Cutting Edge Challenge #14

It’s time for the another Cutting Edge Challenge! Our inspiration this week is an amazing card created by Design Team member Lisa Addesa.

Here’s my take on her card.
Challenge14

I was inspired by Lisa’s use of color and the repetition of a single shape. I cut a Poppystamps ornament die out of three cardstock colors and adhered the shapes to ones I’d cut from black cardstock for extra depth. The ornament tops and the Simon Says Stamp sentiment were cut from a metallic cardstock.

The Cutting Edge Challenge #13

It’s time for the another Cutting Edge Challenge! Our inspiration this week is an amazing card created by Design Team member Kay Miller.

After staring at Kay’s lovely creation and realizing that there was nothing I could do to improve upon her design, I decided to create a card with a fall/autumn theme using the Paper Smooches Seasonal Tree die set.

I adhered the tree to the light blue panel and popped the leaves up with dimensional adhesive.

The Cutting Edge Challenge #12

It’s time for the another Cutting Edge Challenge! Our inspiration this week is an amazing card created by Design Team member Amy Kolling.

I was drawn to the theme and colors in Any’s inspiration, creating a similar card using an Impression Obsession die set.

Challenge12

I cut the Impression Obsession airplane several times to create more dimension. I sponged white pigment ink onto the card panel through the My Favorite Things stencil. I stamped the sentiment from Clearly Besotted onto the airplane banner, curving the stamp as best I could to match the curve of the banner. The banner was cut from vellum and white cardstock. Originally I planned to simply have the vellum banner, but it got lost on the cloud background. After putting the card together it seemed a bit plain (no pun intended!) so I sprinkled on some white and blue sequins.

The Cutting Edge Challenge #11

It’s time for the another Cutting Edge Challenge! Our inspiration this week is an amazing card created by Design Team member Melania Deasy.

I was drawn to the theme and colors in Melania’s inspiration, creating a similar card using the Polaroid die from the MFT Stamps set.

Challenge11_Click

I used the camera to cut the Lawn Fawn patterned paper three times. I also cut a larger circle out of the same papers to put behind the lens opening in the camera. I cut a square piece out of the patterned paper and inserted it into the slit in the bottom camera to replicate a Polaroid image.
