Set of CAS cards

 

 

 

Prior to using the Framelits Die Set 12PK w/Stamps - Here & There for last week's layout, I used them on a set of clean and simple cards.

 

 

 

I thought that even though the arrows have a slightly distressed / worn look they would work well for a very simple card design. I simply stamped a row of one of the arrows along the bottom of each card using a dark brown ink.

 

 

 

To give each card a little something something, I stamped one of the arrows in a bright colour and then I die cut this arrow. Finally, I added it towards the right side of the card using foam adhesive. This adds some dimension and interest to this very clean design.

 

 

 

Simply changing the colour of this contrasting arrow really makes each card different from the other cards. So when making a set of cards sometimes just using different colours is enough to ensure your cards remain fresh and fun.

 

 

 

The last step in finishing each card was to add a sentiment and I used one from the Framelits Die Set 10PK w/Stamps - Flowers & Tags using the same brown ink as the majority of the arrows.

Inden jeg brugte Sizzix Framelits Die Set 12PK w/Stamps - Here & There på sidste uges layout, brugte jeg de samme stempler og dies til at lave et sæt enkle kort. Jeg mente, at til trods for at pilene har et slidt look, kunne de bruges som motiv for et stramt kortdesign.

 

Jeg stemplede en række pile nederst på et kort i en mørk brun sværte, og for at give hvert enkelt kort noget ekstra, stemplede jeg en af pilene i en konstrasterende farve. Denne farvede pil udstansede jeg med sættets medfølgende dies, hvorefter jeg monterede den på 3d-puder hen mod den højre side af kortet.

 

Noget så enkelt som at ændre farverne på hvert enkelt kort kan være med til at holde hvert kort i et sæt friskt og unikt.

 

Det sidste skridt var at stemple en tekst på kortene, og her valgte jeg at bruge en hilsen, som stammer fra Framelits Die Set 10PK w/Stamps - Flowers & Tags.
