Trio of Cards with Emma Kate

.

Hey Lollipop friends, after watching Lisa’s ‘Day In the Life’ vlog on her ‘Life with Lisa’ YouTube channel I was inspired to make some cards of my own. So using the ‘Rise & Shine kit here I have created a trio of greetings cards.

For the smallest of the three cards I punched out circles from the pink patterned paper in the kit, for the circles without sentiments on them I stamped my own. I then layered the circles onto my card using a combination of wet glue & where I wanted to add dimension I used foam tape & finished the card with a handful of sequins.

For the larger square card I created a shaker pocket, I began with a circle die cut from the cloud patterned paper then I machined stitched a layer of tulle on top, leaving a small gap so I could add some sequins, once added I completed the stitching. Next, I drew around the banner stencil with a black fineliner pen & fussy cut it out placing it on top of my shaker pocket along with the ‘Have A Good Day’ die cut piece.

For my final card I used a piece of packaging which had the words ‘The Best Day Ever’ printed on the back, I love how Lisa enables you to use everything single thing that comes in the kit & it paired perfectly with the days of the week patterned paper I used as my background. I again used the stencil to create a banner & I stamped the words ‘hope you have’ to compliment the main sentiment. To finish I added fussy cut hearts from various pieces within the kit & a sprinkling of the sequins.

Making your own cards are so much fun & are lovely to receive, I’m sure you will agree, so why not give it a go!

Much Love
