So yesterday I posted my Up Up and Away card using Mat Stack 3. I thought it looked like a window with the clouds and the blue paper. SO I had to go and try something else with the Mat Stack. Basically create another window....so here is my card!
(Edit: I am here editing to tell Melissa and Kara...I thought yesterdays mat stack looked like a window too! LOL!)
I used Moroccan Impression plate to give it some detail.
And while I was making this card, my 6 year old was making one too! She is already so creative! I just love this card! I had to tear up when she gave it to me!
She told me that since we both just got our hair cut now we look even more alike! (She is my mini me!) The day we had it done our hairdresser flipped the ends up! She loves her new do! :)
Thanks for looking! Have a great Tuesday!
I love this....wonderful use of the die. I love the colors and everything...need to get that set!
ReplyDeleteYOUR DD is so CUTE!! I hope that when Emma turns six my hair color changes in her drawings~~~ right now it is always pink and orange :) Love how smart you were with the window ...... I love how the stamping is behind ....... very pretty and very cleaver ~~
ReplyDeleteI love your window card and the colors are perfect! Your daughter's card is precious too!
ReplyDeleteSimply beautiful PTI card Laurie!!! Love the window you created!!! Your daughter's card is sooo sweet too...what a great way to bond :)!!! Hugs ~S~
ReplyDeleteThis is GORGEOUS, Laurie!!! It does look like a window!!!
ReplyDeleteLaurie, it's absolutely beautiful! I love seeing your creations. I remember what it's like to receive such gifts from my 5 children when they were young. Now my grandchildren are beginning to do it too. Such special memories they make.
ReplyDeleteLaurie!! Super card. I love the idea of the "window" on the card. very nice. The card your daughter made is adorable. I can remember when my daughter thought stamping with me was cool...not so much anymore. :)
ReplyDeleteLove the die used as a window. Fabulous.
ReplyDeleteWow laurie, love your card! That window is perfect! Your dd's card is so cute.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, Laurie! I love the negative space as a real window--very cool! The impression plate totally makes the card seamless, so gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteYour daughter's card is adorable! Love both of you with your flipped hair, cute!
Love all the elements on your card.... just gorgeous! I still have yet to use that die, but thanks for the idea. =)
ReplyDeleteSimply gorgeous, Laurie!! Love the elegant layout and colors and that window ROCKS!! Your little girl's card is adorable!
ReplyDeleteThat really does look like a window! Your card is simply gorgeous Laurie! And your daughter's card is too cute! Doesn't it just melt your heart when your kids make cards like that :) I have a big box filled with things my kids have made for me and I'm going to keep it forever!
ReplyDeleteAhhh, Rylee's card is so adorable!! I love how she flipped the hair up...attention to details! :) Your card is so pretty as well! That die does make a great window! Love the look the IP gives to it too!
ReplyDeleteThis is truly breathtaking Laurie. Simply fabulous. That IP adds so much texture, makes me think almost of stucco walls or something.
ReplyDeleteYour daughters card is too sweet. I love that she thinks you look alike...kids need a visual common factor with their parents. I've never realized this more since I adopted mine and they have beautiful coffee skin, while I am pasty white! My little one is always asking me why he doesn't look like him *sniff sniff*
Your card is so elegant! I love how you stamped inside the window!
ReplyDeleteLaurie your card is BEAUTIFUL! I LOVE how you did the window on the front.. and your DDs card is just DARLING!! Such a sweet treat from her!! and from that great photo I would guess you were TWINS! ;)
ReplyDeleteHave a GREAT day!
What a beautiful card Laurie! I just love the colors and the use of the mat stack die! Oh my your daughters card is too fabulous! Just like her talented momma!
ReplyDeleteOh Laurie.....I don't know how you do it....beautiful card, PERFECTLY lined up die in the center, and stunning layout! Rylee's card is adorable...I love when Payton sits down and creates her "cards"!!
ReplyDeleteSeriously gorgeous!! You are a rock star! Love your daughters card too! (I will have a Rylee in my class this year, did you happen to move to Wisconsin?? Just some wishful thinking!)
ReplyDeleteLove the idea to use the die to make a window. What a sweet card from your daughter!
ReplyDeleteA complete and utter stunner of a card, could not be more perfect!
ReplyDeletePretty card Laurie. I have never seen that textured background before! I love it. But even more I LOVE that adorable card by Rylee. Make sure you tell her that I think she is a fabulous card maker!!
ReplyDeleteYour card is absolutely beautiful! So simple and yet very stunning. Love your DDs creation as well...what a great thing for you to share with her.
ReplyDeleteThis is so elegant, Laurie! The cut out area with the die--so clever. Using the impression plate makes the black paper look almost like leather--so beautiful! Rylee's card is precious!
