Never Quit using Day by Day from Mintay Papers.
Hi all,
Today I'm working with my July DT kit for Craft on the Run. Using the beautiful Day By Day collection from Mintay papers. Absolutely stunning!!
As with many of the Mintay collections I began with fussy cutting out all those elements. A task in itself but well worth the effort.
Immediately I was inspired by the elements to create a layout about eldest daughter whom at the age of 16 knows exactly what she wants to do with her life and what she needs to achieve her goals. This page is a reminder for her to continue to work hard and never quit. Hence the title "work hard, Never quit!"
I started with the black and white MT-DAY-05 as my base which I added a torn strip of MT-DAY-02 down the left hand side of the page. To this I added a layer of cheese cloth before adhering the photo.
From here I kept the layout simple and began adding the various elements and chip board accents. Some I adhered with foam tape to create dimension and lift off the page. For some added interest I cut a couple of flourishes using the Uniquely Creative Flourish Die.
Finally my finishing touch was to add one of the large black flower blooms which I toned down with a little Art Alchemy wax in rose gold.

Hi Everyone, Rachel here!
Today I'm sharing a gorgeous card that is focusing on the background colours using Distress inks and how you can make it to suit your card theme. It's quite a simple card and you don't need many supplies, but boy does it have impact!
Featured on this card;
Distress Ink - Spiced Marmalade
Distress ink - Squeezed Lemonade
Paper Rose Sentiment Sheets
Sequins
Foam Squares
Kasiercraft - Crochet Doilies
Black card stock
Stamp or hand drawn shape
Supplies.
To start with, I cut my paper to size for the card. I then applied the Distress inks in a random way to create a background colour. By doing this you will also make the Doilies stand out more.
Next I chose a sentiment from the Paper Rose Sentiment sheets. I also decided on using a black piece of card stock to frame the Doilies piece of paper we just finished inking.
I decided it would also need some sort of picture to add to the features of this card. I have chosen this stamp but I'm sure you could also draw it with a black fine liner. To finish it off I used Copic Sketch markers to colour the segments in different yellows and oranges.
Before you stick everything down have a play with placement. Where do the images look good, do you you need more for example? After you are happy with it all, glue the sequins down and place foam squares under the images and sentiment to raise them up.
And... we are done! A beautiful bright card that will brighten anyone's day.
A close up of the finer details.
There are so many possibilities with Kasiercraft - Crochet Doilies.
Have a play and don't be scared to try out some different Distress Ink colour combos.
Happy card making friends...
