Celebrating 3000 wonderful cards shared across the world with
And to mark this amazing occasion Gail and Jo have arranged a BLOG HOP, with games and prizes throughout the month.... for details pop over to the CCC blog, check out the cards exchanged for May
This is the card I made and sent to Cat in the USA for the May challenge... I roughly used the sketch and the colours for my card.
I decided to make a floating frame card and to use the cutout section for Cat's card.
I stamped, coloured and die cut the flowers and leaves multiple times and then arranged them on the card front panel and keeping them in place with washi tape, die cut the centre rectangle. Then carefully removing the tape and replacing the flowers mounted with foam tape. I used gold Washi tape to create a border on a larger rectangle and attached the floating piece with foam sheet. Then to finish stamped and gold embossed the sentiment and added gold Washi tape strips to top and bottom of card front.
This is the frame card I made with the outer section.
This is the lovely card Linda sent me... it's gorgeousI hope you have time to leave a comment and maybe visit the CCC blog to join in the celebrations.
Thanks for stopping by my blog --- have a Happy Day and stay safe

Hi Robyn, ahhhh, floating frame card. I was so curious how you got this lovely look. It's a gorgeous card. Love it. Hugz
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet, dainty card, Robyn - I love it! Thanks for being a link in our chain again. Big hugs, Jo x
ReplyDeleteThis look is just gorgeous, you must have such patience to create all those die cuts but the effect is fabulous. I love the gold and pink together too xx
ReplyDeleteHi Robyn! I believe I will be sending you a card in June. I'm already working on it so it may get to you before the end of the month as I live in the US. This is an incredible card and you've caught the gold so well in your photo.
ReplyDeleteRobyn, the card is so lovely. I am awaiting it. Mail is sporadic...took 3 weeks for me to get some thing from Utah just 2/3 of the continent away from me. So I'll be thrilled all over again when your card arrives. So glad I got to see it in this post for a teaser.
ReplyDeletelucky Cat to receive such a gorgeous card - and love the second card too!
ReplyDeleteAn amazing card Robyn - love the floating frame technique, and you have really rocked it on these cards
ReplyDeleteStay safe

You dared to do the sketch. I had no idea this time, but you succeeded in implementing it. A beautiful and delicate card.
ReplyDeleteI've only been with CCC for three months, but I'm already very excited and have found new blog friends. Gundi
