Casually Crafting Design Team Hop – Holiday Dreams

Hello and a huge welcome to the July Casually Crafting Celebration blog hop! This month our theme is Holiday Dreams.

The Casually Crafting Design Team are a group of Independent Stampin’ Up! demonstrators that want to share our love of crafting with you all.  We will be sharing what we love every 3rd Friday of each month.  Make sure you check out the rest of the Design Team’s creative projects using the photo links at the end of this post.

Holiday Dreams

For the holiday dreams theme I went a little outside the box so to speak.  I didn’t go for a typical scenic or beach scene.  For my Dad’s 70th birthday he took us all to a beautiful farmhouse in rural France.  There were fields upon fields of beautiful sunflowers – one of my favourites.  So I decided to use Celebrate Sunflowers bundle.  The card I decided to make looks a lot more difficult than it is, it’s a pop up box card – which is the style of card I specialise in in my Etsy shop.  I used the dies to cut the individual sunflowers but you could fussy cut them if you don’t have the dies to work with.

 

  For my base and decorative panels I used Crumb Cake cardstock.  I embossed the side panels using one of the greenery embossing folders.  If you haven’t got these yet they are a must!  They are so pretty and the give a beautifully depth of embossing.  I stamped the sunflowers in soft suede and then coloured them using my Stampin’ Blends.  The card was finished with a length of old olive ribbon and a white embossed tag.

I hope you like my card and my interpretation of our theme this month.  Don’t forget to click on the photographs below to continue hopping and see what the rest of the Casually Crafting Design Team have come up with!
