The wood grain card stock by Core-dinations was one of my favorite patterns. It suited itself well with my favorite camping line! Using my Silhouette SD I cut out library pockets with matching tags to create a mini album.
“Home Is Where the Heart Is” CARD
GlueArts Designer: Patti Milazzo
Supplies:
Glue Arts:
Glue Glider Pro with
1/4 High Tac PRO+ Cartridge Refill - Pro
U-Cut-It Adhesive Foam
Extreme Adhesive Squares
Extreme Micro Adhesive Squares
Core’dinations Cardstock:
Sand It Gadget
Dust Buddy
Core Impressions – Cosmo Cricket Classics

Other:
Cosmo Cricket Mr. Campy pattern paper
Fiskars – Leaf and Dragonfly Squeeze Punches; Border Punch; “The Simple Things” stamps
Instructions:
1. Cut a 4” x 6” piece of Core’dinations Cardstock (green) and tear across the bottom. This will be the foundation of the layers and the bottom layer shown.
2. Next, cut 6 – 2” x 4” pieces of Core’dinations Cardstock. I used a mix from different collections to create my fall palette. Tear and border punch along the length of each piece. Use the Sand It Gadget to sand the already embossed (love that!) patterns as well as the border punched edges to continue the distressed look. Use the handy Dust Buddy to gather up any debris from sanding.
