Hexagon Card by Mendi and Frame by Joy

I always love to see what our Creative Team has done and today is no different. Look how fun and bright this cute card is. I agree with Mendi, I am ready for Spring right now, how about you? Mendi says…

“I don’t know about you, but I’m seriously ready for some sunshine so for today’s card I altered Lori’s Hexagon Card cutting file to form my card’s rainbow background pattern (using my favorite Summer Days paper collection which Lori designed for Echo Park).    I hope it shows that with some great basic shapes and a little creativity, you can really get a lot of mileage and different looks from a single cutting file!  Hop over to my blog today where I am sharing a video tutorial to better explain how I used Lori’s file to create my card.”

Next up is Joy. She is so great and creating decorative items for her home.

When I saw Lori’s Family Word Art Titles file in her store, I just had to have it!  This phrase is something that I tell my husband and children all the time, so it is especially meaningful to me.  I did something very, very simple.  I used my Cameo to cut the phrase out.  Then I cut a piece of paper from Lori’s new Sweet Girl paper line to use as the background.  There’s a trick though!  The patterned paper was just what I wanted to use, but the brightness of it competed with the phrase.  To solve this, I covered it with a piece of vellum.  Problem solved!  It muted the print just enough to make sure that the saying really stood out.  I put everything in the frame and added those precious chipboard images from Lori’s Sweet Girl embellishments.  I hope you’ll come by my blog for more projects and ideas.  Here are some things I’ve pinned on Pinterest that I made using Lori’s great files.  Happy crafting!
