HOLDING YOU CLOSE

I saw a card on Pinterest recently by CindyLeeBee Designs that I thought was beautiful.  I also thought it was a little "different" from many of the cards I've see made with the Enduring Beauty Bundle.  So, I decided to CASE (Copy and Share Everything) it.  About the only thing I changed were the colors and the sentiment.

Isn't this a pretty card?  I thought it was an interesting way to use the large flower--cut it in half and use a portion at the top and a portion at the bottom of the card.  

This card uses the Enduring Beauty layering masks.  If you having used masks before or have and would like some tips and tips based on what I learned when using them watch my Learning with Friends video on YouTube.


I also felt like the softness of the Pool Party color made the card usable for many different occasions.  

The texture on the embossed Basic White panels give the card depth and offer additional interest without significantly increasing the thickness of the card.

I experimented with adding an additional panel to the card front, but I liked the elegant simplicity without the added mat.  

The Enduring Beauty sentiment I selected, "holding you close in my heart", is my favorite sentiment in the stamp set.  I think it can be used for many different occasions, but it is also appropriate to just let someone know how important they are to you.

For the inside of the card I stamped a partial image in the corner and used the masks and blending brushes to color it in.

I hope you have enjoyed the Enduring Beauty Cards I shared this week.  Now that I have finally used the masks and used the bundle on different styles of cards, I know I have just touched on the possibilities it offers.  

Maybe since you have also seen a few ideas using this bundle, you would like to get your own bundle and experiment with all the possibilities.  

Below is a complete list of the products I used on today's card.  If you would like more information on any product or would like to place an order, you can click on the image and it will take you to my Stampin' Up! store.
