Hi Crafty Friends, It's challenge time with my friends over on the CCEE Stampers challenge blog. Liz Williams our challenge hostess for the month, finishes off the month with one last challenge. Liz has given us what she calls "An easy one for the end of the month" – Show us your favorite technique in card making Well of course my favorite technique in card making has to be creating interactive style cards of any sort. It's been a while since I have made an accordion card and it is fun to see that Karen Burniston has released her Fancy Label Accordion card die set again .... I have missed it! Karen has also released a set of two Fancy Flourish Frames to go with the accordion card. This time around Karen has given us 2 of each of the frames which makes it much quicker to die cut the frames when you have a number of pages to decorate. To decorate my accordion card I have used a stamp set from Prickley Pear Rubber Stamps called Gnome Home, there is also a coordinating die set to die cut the mushrooms, flowers and grass. Here is a close up of the first two pages of my accordion ... I just love that gnome peeking out from the top of the mushroom. I used distress oxide inks to create the sky of each of the panels and die cut the grassy areas using green papers. Here is a look at the front of the card when it is closed ready to be placed in an envelope. Don't forget to check out the CCEE Stampers blog (goes live 12 AM EST) to see the rest of the creations the CCEE Stampers created this week.
