Welcome
Unity fans to our Friends of Unity February blog hop! This month our
theme is Love. I came up with my basic layout idea for this card from a video that I saw from Jennifer McGuire on stacked die cutting cards. You can see her video tutorial here. My idea takes the idea of using multiple dies and creating inward dimension, not necessarily giving the card extra height.
The stamp set used in this card design is another reason why I like my Tim Holtz platform so much. Having the grid lines really helps line the stamps up instead of just eyeballing their placement on a clear acrylic block. I am a big fan of monochromatic cards, so I kept this card simple with the navy and white color scheme.
