GO FOR GREECE BLOG HOP AUGUST 2018

Today I am joining the Go For Greece Blog Hop. In this hop, lots of lovely members of the Go For Greece Training Group have joined forces to inspire you.

You may just be starting the blog hop here at my blog - Rosalie Desmond or may have come from the person previous to me. Be sure to click on the person listed under me further down the page to continue your journey on this blog hop.

While this card design is simple, I also find it very elegant. Due to the sentiment "Amazing You" this card can be used for a variety of occasions.

I love to stretch my stamp sets and look outside the norm. I have done this with Hold On To Hope set. This set is a religious set which is very useful for projects that are for occasions such as Baptisms, Christenings, Confirmations or Sympathy. By simply using a different sentiment, in this case die cuts from Celebrate You thinlit set, I  have been able to use some of the images to create a heat embossed background.

For more details on how to make this card, please check out my video.

This card design would work with any card stock colour.

Thank you for joining me today. I hope you find lots of inspiration,

Rosalie

INK & INSPIRATION BLOG HOP - BIRTHDAY SURPRISE

Welcome to the latest Ink and Inspiration blog hop. You are currently visiting Rosalie Desmond from AUSTRALIA. I hope you enjoy this months project. Our theme for this month is - Birthday Surprise. 

For today's theme I decided to take the opportunity to add a masculine card to my stash. Birthday cards are the most used card type in our house and I often struggle to come up with ideas for the males in our lives. 

The card I have created fits into a standard size Australian envelope which makes it cheaper for posting. To change it up a little from a standard fold, I have created a twisted easel card and used the sentiment "celebrate" bumped up with dimensionals, to hold the front of the card in place.

I stamped some of the images from Artisan Textures in the chosen colours to create background and let word framelits and coloured card stock to do the rest of the work. The colour choice comes from this months Stampin' Up! Color Challenge facebook group. The colour combo is  Pacific Point, Smoky Slate, So Saffron and Real Red.

I hope you enjoy the blog hop.

Happy crafting,

Rosalie
