Peek Through Technique #2 with the Move Me Thinlits

in Cardmaking, Creativity, technique on 05/11/18

Every year, my husband spoils me to pieces during nurses week.  Once again, I was surprised with 2 packages at one of my offices.  I didn’t tell him that it was nurses week and he doesn’t have Facebook so he hasn’t seen all the posts.  I cover a large territory for home visits and I was wondering why he kept asking where I was… I received the most beautiful flowers, a handmade card <3 and another little special gift at one of my offices.  If you are a nurse, I wish you a happy nurses week. xo.  His gift came perfectly on time with Mother’s Day just around the corner.  My next couple of cards coordinate beautifully with Chris’s flowers.

I’m offering two classes with the Peek Through technique. Join me Saturday May 12th at 930 or Monday May 14th at 1830.  I’ll be featuring  3 different ways of adding the Move Me Thinlits to your cards.  On my samples above, I chose the word MOM because Mother’s Day is just around the corner but you could recreate this look with any word.

You can read how to make the Peek Through technique using the Move Me Thinlits on my last post HERE.

Tip:  Today I wanted to Highlight the fact that you can use scrap pieces of cardstock in different colours or even designer series paper in the background of the peek through letters.

I used the Share What You Love Specialty Designer Series Paper since it’s part of the new catalogue and you can order it this month.  Check out the Share What You Love Suite to find out more about this collection.  I also stamped the Best Wishes greetings from the retiring stamp set Blooms & Wishes with the new ink Blackberry Ink that demonstrators get to preorder in May.

I’m also excited to share with all of you that the Move Me Thinlits are now on Sale on the clearance rack. So you will be able to make your own version of this card.   Make sure to order them before they are all gone!

I hope you loved my card today and you are going to try The Peek Through Technique.  It’s so fun to be able to see the Share What You Love DSP images through the word mom.  You can create any theme cards by changing the word you die cut with the Large Letter Alphabets Framelits.

If you live in Canada, I would love to be your demonstrator!  Click on the supply list below to order any of the items.  Use Hostess May Code  3AMK3HNS to receive perks from my VIP club.   View all of the promotions including the retired list by clicking HERE.  And if you are from another country, you can still take a glimpse of the products listed and shop with a demonstrator near you.

Have you ever made swaps? Swap Handmade Cards ar Have you ever made swaps? 

Swap Handmade Cards are small, creative cards made by hand and traded with others. Each one is a unique piece of art, shared in a fun exchange where you share your own and receive surprise cards from fellow demonstrators!

They are so fun to do and so inspirational. One of the perks of being a demonstrator.
