a "30 Minute Quickie" card...

I don’t know about you....

but my life is HECTIC!!!

I ALWAYS seem to be on the go.

I’ve been spending every waking moment

creating CHA projects, designing and 

trying to kick a bad allergic attack.

(Yeah....I FINALLY have my voice back!!)

In all the hub~bub....I TOTALLY forgot I needed to 

make a creation for my Die~Namites Dies blog post.

So I “Whipped up a Quickie” card!!

It was created in under 30 minutes.

I began with a piece of Canvas Corp ~ Kraft paper,

cut to 8.5”x 5.5” and folded in half.

I used my Distrezz it All to tear up the edges.

I stamped on the front of the card with

my favorite Hero Arts verbage stamp....

(I call it “white noise”)

Then I cut a piece of Canvas Corp ~ Kraft E Flute

3.75” x 5”, distressed the edges, wrapped it

with some Jute and adhered it to the front of the card.

I pulled out my Daisy Vine ~ Die~Namites Die,

and a piece of Canvas Corp ~ Linen paper.

I diecut the Daisy Vine image

and painted it with a bit of

Sweet Alfalfa ~ Twinkling H2O’s

I love how the paper kinda curls

when you dry it with a Heat Tool.

I then adhered it to the face of the card.

Next, I found a package of 

Petaloo ~ CMC ~ Mini Pearl Daisies,

along some Coral Berry and Yellow Rose

Silks Acrylic Glaze.

I spritzed the flowers with water,

and painted each flower the Yellow Rose.

I slightly dried the flowers and 

then with a small paint brush,

I placed slightly watered down Coral Berry

in the center of the Mini Daisy.

(if the paint doesn’t wick up the petals,

spritz with a bit more water.)

Then I dried the flowers.

I adhered the flowers to the Daisy Vine diecut image.

(I added an extra flower as I got a bit

rough with my diecut, when it was wet,

and tore off a piece....oooops!!)

I then wrote my sentiment on some of the leftover

Kraft paper, edged them with a bit of the leftover

Coral Berry and adhered with pop dots.

I also edged the card with a bit of the Coral Berry.

And there you have it.....

a “30 Minute Quickie”!!!
