Happy Monday everyone!
WOW - thank you so much for stopping by our blog this weekend for the Operation Write Home "Make 'Em Laugh" Blog Hop! I loved reading your comments, and you still have today and tomorrow to link up your funny card for a chance to win a $15.00 Gift Certificate to our shop!
This week, we're SO happy to partner with the fabulous ladies at Scor-Pal!
&
We'll be featuring projects all week long using Market Street Stamps and the nice, deep creasing abilities of Scor-Pal's essential card-making tool, the Scor-Buddy!
So let's get to the projects for today, shall we?
Brenda's created a visual playground by creasing her card base three times width-wise and three times length-wise to create a grid for her elements. Brenda stamped her images from our "Daily Grind" set, and I have to say, I LOVE how her cards always seem to come across as a canvas. So artistic! Be sure to visit Brenda's blog for even more photos!

When I created "Daily Grind", I was really inspired by old-school diners and the colors you might find in a coffee shop somewhere in the 1960's. Using the coffee bean border strip, I used the top of my stamp to line up each strip and stamped multiple times to create my own background paper. I used my Scor-Buddy to create an interesting frame to finish the card.
Now, be sure to pop on over to the SCOR-PAL blog for even more inspiration from some of their designers, too!! We'll be back again tomorrow with more beautiful creations from Julie Day and Stephanie Muzzulin - you won't want to miss it!
Have a wonderful Monday, Stampers!

I really like it. But does the card bend?
ReplyDeleteHi Sharon! No, the card won't bend unless you crease it with a bone folder, like how you would create the fold for your standard card making. We are just creating lines in the card, so no bending occurs. :)
DeleteThey are both great cards, and seem pretty simple to make. I most times overdo my cards--I want to simplify.
ReplyDeleteScoring gives clean and simple cards that extra "finishing touch". You spend a little more time designing but less time adding the pieces to create the card. Glad you like them!
DeleteGreat cards! I LOVE these stamps!
ReplyDeleteGreat stamps and the scoring really adds to the cards.
