Clean and Simple Slim Line Cards

8/21/2020

I am excited to be hopping again today! This time with the amazing stampers of the Pretty Cards & Paper International Design Team. I hope you will visit all of their blogs after this and check out their amazing creations!

This month, we are featuring the 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper. These paper packs come in each of the color collections and both 2019-2021 and 2020-2022 In Colors. Each pack has four different designs: dots, type, denim texture, and wood grain. They are the perfect paper for adding monochromatic texture to your projects!

For the last day of slimline card week on the On Y Go! Stamping blog, I created some clean and simple slimline cards. Using the Stitched Triangle dies, I cut a design from the Whisper White cardstock to allow a rainbow of Brights 6" x 6" DSP to show underneath. So, on y go! Let's get stamping.

The Stitched Triangles die set includes this fun die that cuts a group of small triangles. By using it multiple times on my Whisper White card front, I create an area of cut triangles in the lower right. Like my other slimline card, this one measures 9 1/4" x 3 3/4" and the card front is 9" x 3 1/2". On the Whisper White card base (9 1/4" x 7 1/2", scored and folded at 3 3/4"), I adhered 3/4" strips of Brights 6" x 6" DSP in the full rainbow of colors.

For the greeting, I cut the word "HELLO" using the Playful Alphabet dies from Whisper White cardstock. Before cutting the letters, I adhered the cardstock to an adhesive foam sheet. I adhered the letters to my card front and then swiped over the back with my old embossing buddy. This left powder on the sticky bits of letters showing through the holes to keep them from adhering to my card base. Finally, I adhered my card front to my Whisper White card base using Stampin' Dimensionals.

For fun, I also created this card using a Basic Black card front and card base.

The Stitched Triangles die set also has this strip of tiny triangles. It's perfect for creating a simple border on the edge of a card. Once again, I cut the strip from a Whisper White card front. On my card base, I adhered 1" squares of Brights 6" x 6" DSP arranged in rainbow order. Then I adhered my card front over my card base using Stampin' Dimensionals.

For my greeting on this card, I cut the letters from a piece of Mango Melody 6" x 6" DSP adhered to an adhesive foam sheet. The simplicity of this card is striking!
