June 2022 NC Demos Blog Hop

 Welcome to the NC Demos Blog Hop we are here the last Sunday of the month and are so glad you can join us this evening.  The theme for this months blog hop is "Cute as a Bug".  I really don't like bugs and my sons laugh at me because if one is in the house I catch it and put it outside.  

So for my card I decided to go with a Dragonfly.  The Dragonfly represent change, peace and love and it seems we can all use a little bit of that right now, especially the love.

The base of the card is Soft Succulent cut 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 and scored at 4 1/4.  The I cut another piece of Soft Succulent 5 1/4 x 4 and ran it through the Cut and Emboss machine in the Hive 3-D embossing folder and put it on the front of the card.

White cut 4 3/4 x 2 and used the flowers in the Dragonfly Garden stamp set and stamped then in Soft Succulent and then put this piece on Petal Pink cut 5 x 2 1/4 and put in on the left side of card.  

On a scrap of white in Soft Succulent I stamped the Dragonfly and cut it out with the punch and did the same thing again only on vellum.  I attached the vellum piece to the stamp piece and put it on the right side of the card with dimensionals pulling up the vellum wings a little.  I also added three small Waves rhinestones to the body of the Dragonfly.

I also added two more rhinestones to the flower panel.

The inside is simple white cut 5 x 3 1/2 and in Soft Succulent stamped the salutation and the small flock of dragonflies.

I hope you liked the card and please make sure to check out all of the other blogs for some great bug ideas.  Till next month be happy, bug free, and safe.

May 2022 NC Demos Blog Hop

 Welcome to the NC Demos Blog Hop we are here the last Sunday of each month and so glad you could be here tonight.  The theme for this month was "Something Old, Something New" from the new catty and I decided to go with something that was carried over into the new catty the Color and Contour stamp set but I did use a new fun fold what I call the Diamond Flip Fun Fold.

I took a piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock and cut it at 4 1/4 x 11 and scored it at 2 1/8 and 5 1/2,  This is when the fun starts.  On each side I marked it with a pencil mark at 3 sides at 2 1/8 and then I cut it on two sides at a diagonal and then I did this on the other side.  Not done cut white 5 1/4 x 4 and did the same thing on one of the side they would fit together nicely.  For the diamond at the end cut cardstock 2 7/8 x 2 7/8 and attached it to the white piece.

Also for the inside I cut a piece of white cardstock 3 x 4 stamped salutation and attached it to center panel.

For the front cut a piece of Black 3 x 4 and put a piece of DSP on it cut 2 7/8 x 3 7/8 and attached it to the front.  All that is left now is the front diamond.

For the diamond on the front cut white 2 7/8 x 2 7/8 and stamped the flower in black and added then stamped in the color.  Put this on a piece of 3 x 3 Fresh Freesia and added it to the card making sure all diamonds aligned together. 

Finished it with some cute flower embelishments.
 

Thank you so much for stopping by this month make sure you check out all the other blogs for some wonderful ideas.  Until next month be safe.
