A Very White Card

Hello! Welcome back to my blog. This card was created as part of my AECP 2 journey featuring Monochromatic colors. Today's card is a first for me. I created monochromatic cards before but never in white. 

I am using the Altenew Happy Birthday stamp set and Altenew Trebel Love die set on this project. I started off with die cutting all of the three dies that come in the set on white cardstock. I die cut multiples of these dies, three of each. This is a great way to use those scraps. The sentiment is cut as one. I snipped the words to separate the words. This allows me some freedom to reposition the words. I adhered one on top of the other for some dimension. 

I trimmed a heavy weight white cardstock at 4 1/4" x 11". I scored this at 5 1/2" on the long end to create a top folding A2 note card. I embossed the music icon stamps from the stamp set on a part of the front of this note card. I only need to add the embossing to the part that will show through the split that I will create on the next step. The embossing powder I used is Ranger Seafoam White embossing powder. 

I trimmed a light weight white cardstock at 4 1/4" x 5 1/2". Using a wavy border die, I die cut a gap in this panel, more towards the left side of the panel. I made sure that the embossing on the card panel shows through this gap. I adhered this to the card panel front using foam adhesive.

I added embossing glitter powder on the music clef and the sentiment dimensional die cuts. After pouncing embossing ink on these die cuts, I added Judikins Iridescent Sparkling embossing powder to this, then poured Ranger Clear Rock Candy Glitter. I heat set this until the embossing powder melted. If needed, I repeated the process. 

The music clef has a heart negative cut which I embossed with Ranger Seafoam White embossing powder.

I adhered the music staff die cut on the front of the card panel, more towards the bottom and somehow creating the illusion of connecting the two split wavy front panels. I adhered the other elements after. 

The embossing powders and the dimensions added variation to this card's supposed plainness.

I hope you like my card and give it a try, create your own version. Have a blessed, brilliant and creative day!

6/2024: Altenew decided to change its affiliate program starting this month. Below is my affiliate link to the website. I don't think I can directly link the products I used with this new program. Please feel free to do a product search. I will update as I figure this out. The good thing about this new affiliate program is that I get to earn on each Altenew product you purchase and not only on the product/s I used on this project. As before, there will be no additional cost to you if you make a purchase. It is just a way to help a fellow crafter sustain her love for crafting. While in the Altenew blog, don't forget to check out their new release for this month. Thank you for your support!
