This week’s assignment at Global Design Project was to case fellow designer, Emma Goddard. I wanted to use the colorful blocks of color down the side, because it was striking.

Stacked Color
Here is Emma’s card:
After some measuring, I discovered that six of this die-cut shape would fit perfectly on my design. Do you know where I found this die? It’s a Snail Die; the one that is a note to go in the mini envelope. Click on the picture in my Product List below to see the set, and order, before it retires June 30.
The six colors of cardstock I used for cutting are, top to bottom: Soft Sea Foam, Pear Pizzazz, Fresh Freesia, Polished Pink, Soft Succulent, and Mint Macaron.
I mentioned doing some measuring, so after I stamped the succulents (Simply Succulents Stamp Set) in Smoky Slate Ink on Basic White Cardstock (4 1/4″ X 5 1/2″) I used the largest Stitched Rectangles Die for cutting. Amazingly, the six blocks of color fit perfectly!
Next, I glued my art piece to a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.
The sentiment, “you’ve been on my mind,” is also from the Simply Succulents Stamp Set. I stamped it in Memento Black Ink, and used the smallest Stitched Rectangles Die for cutting. Then, I used the same die to cut from black & white, True Love Designer Paper, glued the two rectangles together, and attached with Dimensionals.
Prior to attaching the sentiment, I added a loop of Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon beneath the label. How do you like the pretty, purple color? If you look at the first picture, you’ll see the ribbon is white. This ribbon is easily colored with Stampin’ Blends, so you can have any color you desire. Because of the alcohol in the Stampin’ Blends, it dries in a jiffy. So fun!
For a final detail, I added three Metallic Pearls. Now, it’s your turn to have fun casing Emma!
