The Orange One It Is, Then! a.k.a The Definition of A Friend

Friday I asked you which one of the cards I should post first and you said the orange one...so...the orange one it is then!
First, I should say that these are not colours I would normally associate or use, but somehow the pieces of paper managed to get together at the moment I made it (of which I will tell you more in a future post, as this was originally made to be exposed in a creativity festival).








Design Details:


  • The base of the card is beige 300 gsm (I think - anyway, heavy weight) card stock, and about the measurements - I should say that I love the A5 format - meaning I use a A4 card stock, folded in two (I think this is approximately 15 x 21 cm). They are big enough for all the next layers and embellishments and they are still easy to be sent.



  • The next layer consists of butter yellow 120 gsm paper, cut 1 cm smaller that the card base, corner punched and edge inked with red ink and sponge. 



  • The burgundy pattern paper is a piece of 120 gsm plain paper, on which I stamped with brown ink with a clear unmounted stamp from Folia Bringmann (I cannot recall the set but if you are interested, I can try to find out for you.). This piece is also edge inked with brown ink and corner punched.



  • The central layer is made of 2 hand cut circles of 120 gsm paper, black and orange, on which I stamped again using the same stamp, slightly bent so it would fit the circle, on which I applied the quilled design, made with 3mm hand cut strips.



  • The ribbon is satin I think, the colour is something in between cantaloupe and a rich yellow, and for keeping the pattern I also stamped it with the same stamp and some red ink. I then applied the bow and the button (which by the way is gorgeous, don't you think?) and for the sentiment I used a digital stamp, printed it on beige 120 gsm paper and sponged it with red ink.


The interior of the card was blank, but as I offered this card to a friend on his graduation, I filled it with nice thoughts.

Well, I hope you like it and if you have any comments or questions about it, just let me know in the comments. Thanks a lot for visiting!

Until next time,
Behave and Quill!

Hey! I know this is somewhat off topic but I was
wondering which blog platform are you using for this site?

I'm getting tired of Wordpress because I've had issues with hackers and I'm looking at alternatives for another platform. I would be awesome if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.

Have you ever thought about adding a little bit more than just your articles?
I mean, what you say is fundamental and all. However think of if you added some great graphics or video clips to give your posts more, "pop"!

Your content is excellent but with images and clips, this site
could definitely be one of the very best in its niche.
Wonderful blog!

of the costs. But he's tryiong none the less. I've been using Movable-type
