Christi's Creative Crew: Floating Bandstand Card Technique.

Today I am featuring the Make & Take project that we made at the team meeting.

I am always so thankful when my team pitches in with Make & Take projects and the treat for the evening.

Debbie took charge of our team Make & Take this month an decided to make the Floating Bandstand Card Technique.

I first saw this technique by Susan Campfield, but Debbie made the shorter version. super cute using the WILDFLOWER BIRTHDAY DSP

Debbie made a variety of cards in this style but I failed to get photos of them all.

Debbie really went above and beyond with this make & take using her ephemera pieces for our team. I put my card together the day after the meeting so I chose my own "celebrate" from a new stamp set that will be available May 6th, called BLOOMING PHRASES.

I am choosing to send this card to a friend so I stamped the birthday greeting, wrote my personal note, and then ran it though with an embossing folder. Then I added the small blue flower and a leaf.

I made some of these in the taller version prior to the meeting because I wanted to see how easy it was.

You can see that you can change it up anyway that you want - the one of the left has a wider top and bottom section.
