Slimline Card Blog Hop

Image
You have asked and we are providing!!  Today we are sharing a fun blohogp with SLIMLINE Cards!  I can't wait to see what everyone has created.  If you arrived here from  Lauren's CTMH Craftings , you are on the right track!!  Look for the next blog to hop to at the bottom of this post.   If you are just getting started, when you get back to me you will have completed the hop!!  (There are 13 hoppers in this hop!)   If you get lost along the way, you can find a link to all of the participants  HERE   Our Slimline Cards measure 3 1/2 x 8 1/2.  I use my old Close To My Heart How To Books such as Cherish and Originals for reference.  They have cards that are 3 x 6 and 3 x 8 which can be easily adapted to 3 1/2 x 8 1/2.  I actually spotted a pattern in one of these books that inspired the card that I am sharing today!  I think that our Slimline cards make great bases for our Waterfall Thin Cut.  I thought it would be fun to use the new Dessert a' la Whirl for my waterfall!   I

On this card I used our Wood Panel Embossing Folder on the Blue Belle cardstock.

If you get lost along the way, you can find the entire list of hoppers  HERE .  I wanted to try something a little different with this stamp using our Diagonal Stripe Slimline Thin Cut and Slimline card.    To create this card, I cut a piece of White Daisy Cardstock to 3 1/4 x 8 1/4.  I marked the very center of the long edge of the cardstock.  I stamped the border flower image lining up the center flower with my mark. Then I stamped on each side to fill in the rest of the border.    I cut a 2nd piece of White Daisy Cardstock to 3 3/4 x 8 3/4.  Again, I marked the center of th
