Who doesn't love perusing Pinterest for a bit of inspiration!?!
I love this Thursday assignment for Bella Blvd using a single photo from Pinterest:
The inspiration photo spoke color and design to me, so for this card I chose to go
with the rainbow color scheme. I love stars for boys' birthday cards so I gathered a few
of them from the Captions Stickers, Paper Pieces and Ciao Chip! For the center of the
card I wanted a small sentiment, so I pulled one of the Birthday Boy flags from the pin and
attached it to the star with foam adhesive. A little border sticker at the bottom not only
adds color, but anchors the design.
Supplies:Trick or Treat: Paper Pieces; Christmas Countdown: Alpha+Bits;
Play Date: Captions, Daily Details, Chasing Rainbows; Ciao Chip Elements: Stars & Hearts;
Flags:Birthday Boy 2; Button Market: Pickle Squares
I love the horizontal line of the leaves found in the inspiration photo, so I chose that aspect
for the design of this card. First, I adhered strips of Designer Tape to cardstock and
then trimmed out. I cut the same-sized strips from the "Leaf Storm" paper and then
placed them in an alternating pattern before stitching in place. Before adding the tape strips,
I cut one end of each into a V and then added to the card with foam adhesive.
A simple "hello" spelled out with stickers and small leaf die-cut completes
this clean-and-simple design.
Supplies: Trick or Treat: Leaf Storm, Spooky Town; High Five Alphabet Stickers: Black-White; Button Market: Pickle Squares; Designer Tape: Polka Dot Combo, Pickle Juice Dot
