Good Morning Friends,

  ( I have a giveaway at the end of this post.  Have you ever used core'dinations and if so what do you think of it?)

You all know that I just love Core' dinations card stock, it cuts like butter in my die cutting machine. The colors match almost every type of element you can find. I used the brown for the couch from the vintage collection and even the most intricate cuts came out beautifully. So I wanted to share with you some of my recent Projects I have made with Core' dinations card stock. The one at the end of the post is new



It comes in packs of 12 x12 20 sheets 20 colors, 6x6  and 4.5x6.5
I love the subtle and muted shades in this line, I find that they work very well for the more romantic type of cards
One of my favorite lines is the vintage collection, Reminisce, the colors are deep in tone and reminiscent of the 50's.

For the banner I used The Super Assortment, color core card stock Elements. These are absolutely beautiful papers in an array of colors 80 sheets 40 different colors and the sizes are 12x12, 81/2x11, 6x6, and 4.5 x6.5





 Then for this last piece I made this sweet birthday card from both the super assortment and the vintage collection. I used stickles  for the cherries on top of the cake lemonade twine from the twinery. For effect I tore the paper at the top, I just love the inside (core of the paper) is exactly the same color as the outside, it gives such a rich look.


 See what I mean ------It cuts like butter



I hope you were inspired by my creations and you will try core'dinations card stock if you haven't tried it yet. You will be amazed.  If you leave a comment on this post I will do a random drawing and send 1 lucky person 10 4 x 5.25 from each of these 2 collections to try ---  that is 20 4 x 5.25 sheets.
(AUG 17th I will announce the winner)

  20. I couldn't agree with you more! I love it and all the colors and textures. unny enough, I found myself recently using the "wrong" side of the paper stock just because the tones were the perfect shade I was looking for. So right or wrong, it always works!

  22. Use it all the time! Love how dry embossing looks when it's sanded - that's my fave technique. I also sand the edges if I want a distressed look.
    Your projects are great with the area cut out and then cut out. You know what I mean... Ha!
