This week’s challenge at CASology is “Cherish,” and I have a quick and easy card to enter. The striped background with the metallic heart is actually a the card front from a pack of inexpensive cards I bought ages ago at Michaels. I cut down the front of it with one of the Simon Says “Stitched Rectangle” dies, and mounted it on a card made with Papertrey Ink’s True Black cardstock.
All that was left to do was to die cut Papertrey Ink’s “Wonderful Words: Love” die which I did three times, and stacked them.
Even with the striped background, to me this is clearly a CAS card—hope it fits with the CASology standards!
Oh yes, I think so too! (And you know I’m an expert!) Well done for the upcycling – you’ve turned the original into something quite striking.
It’s a lovely card. I went to CASology to read about their standards … yeah you nailed it.
Love this clean & graphic design, Karen! Thanks for playing along with us at CASology this week!
Love the card. I like the idea of getting height using 3 diecuts. I bought the Halloween cards from Michaels last year too. Great background for embellishments. Didn’t see them this year. Hope you are having fun.
Your card is so bold, and for some reason it reminds me of the Jail house rock song with Elvis. please take that as the compliment it is intended to be. It’s beautiful.
It’s very nice – I need to remember to stack die cuts for dimension!!
Wonderfully simple. I love the stacked die cuts atop the heart. Thanks so much for playing along at CASology this week.
