Hello, it's Amy and I'm back with Take Two!
Let's just jump right in, shall we?
Today's theme: Crazy about Kraft
My first card is a masculine design, perfect for any festive occasion. Love that sentiment because it is so versatile!
cardstock: stampin' up night of navy/baked brown sugar stamps: winnie & walter/the party ink: fresh ink pool/teal/navy & turquoise other: winnie & walter 1st birthday bash sequins mix
The images are from The Party. This is a must-have set, it truly is perfect for any kind of party! I used 4 different shades of blue ink and sprinkled the 1st Birthday Bash Sequins as a finishing touch!
If you know me, you were probably waiting for a coffee project:
cardstock: papertrey ink kraft, strathmore watercolor other: winnie & walter/in a word: cheers cutaway other: winnie & walter/essentials: katarine cutaways, black craft foam, starbucks coffee sleeve
I upcycled a coffee sleeve and used the In a Word: Cheers Cutaway! I really love how this one turned out. In order to make the word pop, I backed it with another Cheers Cutaway that I die cut with black craft foam.
The Essentials: Katharine Cutaways ...such a great die set. The rectangle pierced panels are perfect for any project. I used watercolor paper and did a wash of coral ink.
My final project is an embellished kraft bag.
cardstock: strathmore watercolor stamps: winnie & walter/the party ink: stampin' up white embossing powder, fresh ink/coral other: winnie & walter/in a word: love cutaway, whisker graphics kraft bag, american crafts glitter cardstock, t$pot clipboard, recollections clothespin
The In a Word: Love Cutaway was teamed up with glitter cardstock. I did a messy wash of the same coral ink (that I used on the Cheers card). I love how it makes the white embossed blooms POP, they are from The Party set.
The clipboard? I love the Target dollar spot!
Want to read more about this particular project and what I have planned for it? Make sure you pop over to my BLOG.
But before you go, Julie & Shay have kindly given me a $30 Winnie & Walter Gift card to give-a-way! I'm going to do a random draw on the comments that are left on the Saturday Leading Lady posts here, on the Winnie & Walter blog!
Make sure you swing by my blog because I'm going to be giving away another $30 Winnie & Walter Gift card {I'm matching Julie & Shay's!}. It'll work the same way, leave comments on the Winnie & Walter Saturday posts on my personal blog for the month of March and I'll do a random draw for one lucky winner!

Oh, these projects are just dynamite! I love the cheers card - using a Starbucks cup holder backed with foam, genius! I love the CAS look of the card with the wash on the corner. Super cool card (and so Amy!!). As usual, Amy has hit it out of the park! Can't wait to see what else she inspires us with this month!
ReplyDeleteMore fabulous projects, Amy ... the balloons against the kraft are brilliant ... there's a terrific transluscent feel to them! Anita :)
ReplyDeleteYou are amazing Amy!! These are just gorgeous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThe use of the sleeve - AMAZING! I love it and I will most probably be CASEing it~ just saying. I have started with the backing foam - so much easier. Great card and project~
ReplyDeleteFab idea to recycle the coffee sleeve! Now I'll be hoarding those, too. ha!
ReplyDeleteAmy, a series of marvelous cards that have me wanting to run immediately to my crafting corner and case you! These are amazing, especially the way you've woven kraft through all three! Yet again, in awe...Off to see what you have in mind for project 3.

ReplyDeleteAmy is making me smile at her use of the word dies and just how cool and clever her cards and projects are!!! What a fun post full of things to love!!!
ReplyDeleteLove the circles on the first card. The others show that you don't need to do a lot of stamping or dedicated painting - a little smidge of color does great.
ReplyDeletethanks for sharing
The blue circles are so pretty. The pop of the sequins really adds detail.
ReplyDeleteThe other projects show that you don't have to do a lot of coloring to get a great design.
thanks for sharing.
Great variety--my fave is the first one.
ReplyDeleteWow, love all these projects! Love the balloons in blue on kraft as I'm always looking for "subdued/masculine" card ideas. Repurposing the coffee sleeve is brilliant and turned out beautifully for the "cheers" card, and the pink/gold combo with the clipboard is stunning.

Three super duper projects from Amy!
ReplyDeleteLove the masculine card with Champagne Bubbles (okay, that's my interpretation :),
Plus the CHEERS cut out of a Coffee Sleeve is a great idea. That Kraft bag on the clip board is a neat hiding place for all the little punched stars, hearts, flowers, etc on my craft desk.
These are all so fantastic and love your ideas for every one of them. I especially like the balloon card with all those beautiful blues....its gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness!!! Amy, you're amazing!!!! The coffee card?! I can't even stand it, it's amazing!! The Blues and sparkle on the first card is soooo pretty! And I LOVE the clipboard! So much love here!!
