Slimline Card & Memory Keeping Orange Blossom - Reimagining Slim Line Cards Into Memory Keeping - AECP Level 3

Hi Everyone, today I am sharing with you my fifth and final completed Level 3 Classes card for the Altenew Academy Level 3 Classes - Reimagining Slim Line Cards into Memory Keeping. The course demonstrated how to create a stunning Slimline Card as a starting point for your Memory Keeping. 

After I completed Nathalie and Maryam's course I was so inspired to improve on and stretch myself in creating a Memory Keeping Layout using a Slimline Card as an example for motivation. I was so amazed by using the Altenew Dies, Inks and Stamps and thinking out of the box, you can create two beautiful projects which compliments each other. I think that is a win don't you?

For today's Slimline Card and Memory Keeping I used the beautiful Altenew Orange Blossom Die Set and Altenew Dotted Waves Cover Die with a few Card Techniques. 


Slimline Card

First I die-cut and embossed white cardstock with the Altenew Dotted Waves Cover Die and ink blend it using the Sweet Dreams Crisp Dye InkI love the pretty textured background I created for the Altenew Orange Blossom die-cuts.


Following on from this I die-cut white cardstock with the Altenew Orange Blossom Die Set and ink blend it with the Altenew Summer Afternoon Crisp Dye InkFrosted Foliage Fresh Dye Ink and Coffee Break Espresso Crisp Dye InkI adhered it onto the card panel using 3D Foam Dots.


I then added splatters using the Altenew Metallic Watercolor 14 Pan Set and Altenew Watercolor Fine Brush. I adhered it onto the card front using the Altenew Instant Dimension Foam Tape.


To finish I die-cut white and green mirror cardstock with the Altenew Envelope Liner Hello Die to create a shadow effect sentiment. I adhered it onto the card front using 3D foam dots and added some sequins.

Memory Keeping

I just had to use a photo of our adorable and cute furry child. She gives us so much love and joy and the Altenew Orange Blossom die-cuts just makes a beautiful frame around the picture.

First I die-cut and embossed white cardstock with the Altenew Dotted Waves Cover Die and ink blend it with the Sweet Dreams Crisp Dye InkI layered it onto cardstock and then onto white cardstock using the Altenew Instant Dimension Foam Tape.

Following on from this I die-cut cardstock with a circle die, layered the photo onto the cardstock and adhered it onto the ink embossed panel using the Altenew Instant Dimension Foam Tape.


I then die-cut white cardstock with the Altenew Orange Blossom Die Set and ink blend it with the Altenew Summer Afternoon Crisp Dye InkFrosted Foliage Fresh Dye Ink and Coffee Break Espresso Crisp Dye InkI adhered it onto the ink embossed panel using 3D Foam Dots.


Following on from this I added splatters using the Altenew Metallic Watercolor 14 Pan Set and Altenew Watercolor Fine Brush

I then die-cut white and green mirror cardstock using a sentiment die to create a shadow effect sentiment and adhered it on the ink embossed panel.


Following on from this I die-cut green mirror cardstock with the Altenew Modern Deer Heart Die, adhered it onto the ink embossed panel using 3D foam dots and added some sequins.

To finish I trimmed coloured and white cardstock and layered the ink embossed panel onto the cardstock using the Altenew Instant Dimension Foam Tape.

I will share more of my projects from the AECP as I work my way through the courses so stay tuned for more cardmaking posts!
