In the world of cardmaking, sometimes less is more. Today, we’re diving into a project that showcases the beauty of simplicity and the power of well-executed layering.
Our focus? The classic combination of white cardstock with a vibrant pop of color. Join me as we explore how to create a stunning card that’s sure to impress.
There’s something timeless and elegant about a white card base. It provides the perfect backdrop for other elements to shine. In this project, we’re taking that concept and adding a twist with our upcoming 2024-2026 In Colors from Stampin’ Up! These fresh, new hues bring a modern flair to a traditional design.
The key to this project is the layering. We start with a crisp white cardstock base and add layers for depth and interest. A simple technique of scoring lines adds texture, while our chosen In Color adds a bold splash of personality.
Do you have a favorite pop of color? I think Petunia Pop is going to be utilized in my craft room often.
Why recreate this project? For starters, it’s a great way to explore the versatility of white cardstock. It’s also an opportunity to play with color in a controlled and impactful way. Plus, mastering the art of layering opens up a world of possibilities for future projects.
Whether you’re a seasoned crafter looking for new techniques or a beginner eager to learn, this project is for you. It’s a chance to hone your skills, unleash your creativity, and create something beautiful that’s sure to brighten someone’s day.
As we wrap up, I encourage you to give this project a try. Experiment with different color combinations, explore new ways to layer, and most importantly, have fun! Cardmaking is about more than just paper and ink—it’s a way to connect, express, and create joy. So, grab your supplies and let’s get crafting!
Don’t forget to watch the video tutorial below for step-by-step instructions on how to create your own white layered card with a pop of color. Happy crafting!
