Tutorial: Layered card (+ some footage of my favorite hot glue gun)

I wanted to experiment with some layering, for I’d seen and admired layered cards and layouts from others but hadn’t tried it myself yet. This was my first attempt and while I was at it, I decided to give you the opportunity to follow along! 🙂

The paper I used was Rose Garden by First Edition – the same 6×6 inch pad that I used for the three cards I showed you a couple of posts ago. The stamp is a great birthday stamp by Kaisercraft.

I’m also showing you my hot glue gun this time, it’s a really great piece of equipment!
Anyway, here’s the tutorial. Wait, don’t leave until the very end, for I’ll give you some sneak peeks into my Mini Album Month! It starts this September (so next week!) and you’ll be able to check out a mini album every week instead of every month!

A Rose Garden Trio of Birthday Cards

Here’s three different cards created from one paper stack: Rose Garden by First Edition. All three designs are my own; it was great fun to come up with them and create them. The Rose Garden paper is truly lovely, very feminine and romantic. Very suitable for my aunt and my cousin, who have their birthdays in August.

The designs are very stylish, their contruction kept lean and with very little embellishments. It’s my way of allowing the beauty of the paper to speak for itself.

There’ll be a tutorial of the third card in one of my upcoming September projects (Natural History Adventure Ultra Mini Album), where it’ll be a mini album page design. But it works as a card just as well! So stay tuned if you want to learn how to make one… 😉

Anyway, here’s the video – hope you feel inspired by these cards 🙂
