Geared Up Garage - quick & simple

Hello, here are the details for our first project this week using Geared Up Garage.

We used this foil with one of the dies in the Garage Gears Thinlits - look at the colours in the foil ...

Two simple die cuts adhered to a Whisper White base that was then adhered to the card blank with Dimensionals look simply stunning cut with this gorgeous foil.

We used one of my new favourite items; the Rectangle Stitched Framelits and one of the sentiments in this set.  A further die cut trio of cogs was placed to one side.  I used the 'waste' from the background sheet of Mini Dimensionals to cut tiny pieces from so that you can't see them.

Here is the finished card.

Did I mention that I really, really like the Classic Garage Suite?  Well, I do!  I decided to have a bit of a play and came up with another two versions of this card.

This one is the dirty version.  We used the splodgy/smudgy stamp to create a background panel before adhering the gears.  We used Smoky Slate ink that was 'stamped off' first.

The inside of the card and the envelope were stamped to coordinate.

Then I used a sponge to add even more ink to the edges of the stamped panel and the sentiment.

This is the very dirty version!

Obviously, I like all three versions and can't decide which I prefer!

This morning I offered my crafty ladies the chance to change things around a bit and let them choose which version they would like to make.  They all choose dirty versions!  I'll keep a tally and let you know which was the most popular at the end of the week.

I have two further C & C session this week, if you would like to join me to make this card and another, you can all find the details here.  Don't forget that if you place a £25 plus order on Thursday you can craft for free!

Hope you can join me for a crafty coffee soon.
