World Card Making Day with Authentique Harmony paper collection

Hi there! What a better way to celebrate World Card Making Day than with an entire collection! All of these cards use Authentique Harmony papers. I was using the 6x6 paper for a few challenges and was left with a few scraps. I used the last pieces to create the following cards. I also used some sketches from my card sketch Pinterest board.

I used some Kiwi Lane templates for this card and a Stampin Up punch.

More Kiwi Lane cuts and Stampin Up banner punch.

Using Frantic Stamper Cut Corner die and music sheet paper from another manufacturer along with Authentique die cuts.

These pearls from Queen & Co matched perfectly!

Clean and Simple using Spellbinders nesting dies.

More punched banners which is a great way to use up every tiny scrap of paper.

Switching to the mustard and grey papers. The collection came with so many great die cut sentiments, I tried to use them all up on these cards.

This sentiment is stamped.

As is this one.

I loved the pretty blue flower and ribbon on this card.

Thanks for bearing with me and all these cards from scraps. Happy World Card Making Day!

I felt like making a fun fold for this hop. Be prepared there are quite a few pictures from the different views. I just love these little camera paper clips from my stash. I used chalkboard black paper for a neat vintage feel and it looked great with the Authentique papers.

Inside the first fold:

It is ever so noticeable in this view that I popped the lens of the die cut camera out with a small layer of foam. It is subtle but effective in person.

To create this fold I found a youtube video that I liked. I find youtube so helpful.

I fixed the sentiment with a brad so it is movable.

Ingredients:
Authentique Harmony 6x6 papers
Tim Holtz/Sizzix camera die
Spellbinders label die

I added a bit more detail by using a honeycomb embossing folder. I inked up the embossing sentiment piece to bring out the words. The papers are from a kit I won from a NSD challenge from Theresa! Thanks, I love Authentique!

Here's the Sketch n Scrap sketch:

Ingredients:

Stampin Up embossing folder

Darice embossing folder (sentiment)

Quick Quotes Buttercup ink

Quick Quotes Baja Blue ink

12 Days of Christmas Blog Hop! Day 12: How many cards did I make with Authentique 6x6?

Welcome to the 12 Days of Christmas Blog Hop Day 12. This hop will take place November 24th through December 5th and the new postings each day will be posted by 8am eastern standard time. This hop will be full of wonderful ideas and inspiration to get you well on your way of creating all of those beautiful Christmas project. This is an awesome way to get a lot of your Christmas cards, and scrapbook layouts finished, home decorations completed and maybe even be inspired to create something using a new technique that you have never tried. There will be a new project posted each and every day by all the wonderful amazing ladies in this hop. Also each day we will have a guest designer or two for you to visit.

You should have arrived from Pam's blog if not you can start at Lisa's blog or the entire line up at the bottom of the page.

So being the final day I need to show you all the rest of the cards I made! I even went as far as using the cover and the sentiment on the back of the Authentique 6x6 Believe paper pad.

#14

Here is proof this is the cover:

These were the last final scraps of paper.

I took some punches to them!

And here is what I came up with:

#15 Creative Memories hex punch, Stampin Up label punch, Stampin up Holiday Home stamp. Mounted on white smooth card stock.

#16 same ingredients as above

#17 CAS with some washi and buttons and using a CM corner rounder. Mounted on a eggshell smooth card stock.

#18 same as above

#19 another version of the white poinsettia from an earlier post.

#20!!!! I used a sketch I saw at Inspired by Stamping but by the time I got this one completed the challenge was over. I used Spellbinders scalloped circles and some fancy embossed paper. My Craft dee Bowz tool made a beautiful bow! The same SU sentiment and punch as above. Mounted on white shimmer card stock which is kind of hard to see.
