Hello, Honey Bee friends! Do you make clean and simple cards? If you are here regularly, you most likely know that I do not! Haha! But I think I've succeeded today with this card that features the Lovely Layers: Sub Sandwich Honey Cuts! Check it out!
I started out with the Lovely Layers: Sub Sandwich dies. First I chose the items I wanted to layer in my sub sandwiches. Next I chose various colored cardstocks for the pieces. I die cut the meat and onion layers from white cardstock.
Once you have the dies and cardstocks planned out, it's super easy to have a die cutting session and cut out enough pieces for three sub sandwiches! To add some dimension and depth of color to the pieces I used either inks with blending brushes or my Copic markers.
If you'd like to see some of this process, check out my Instagram later this morning to watch my reel! I particularly like how the bread for the Subs turned out after I added shading to the pieces!
With all of the goodies shaded or colored, I used Bee Creative glue to adhere layers together and then layered them into the sandwiches.
To keep the card background simple and give a place to "ground" the three sandwiches, I ink blended a rectangle onto the A2 card front. This was super easy! I used my paper trimmer to cut four ½" strips of masking paper. I placed the strips around the edges of the card base, then used a neutral blue ink and a large blending brush to color in the space.
I removed the masking paper to reveal this pretty inked rectangle! I used glue and foam strips to adhere each Sub Sandwich into the rectangle.
The sentiments are from the Stacked With Joy stamp set. After I stamped each sentiment with black pigment ink, I cut them out with the coordinating Stacked With Joy die. To match the height of the Sub Sandwiches, I used a double layer of foam strips to adhere each sentiment to the card.
I really like my version of this clean and simple card with the Lovely Layers: Sub Sandwich! I hope you like it too! Thank you so much for stopping by today. I hope your day is a good one!
