Lovely Layers Blog Hop With DeNami Design


Hi there!!! Welcome to your next stop on DeNami Design's Lovely Layers Blog Hop!!! I hope you are enjoying all of the FABULOUS inspiration our participants have created! If you're on track, you've arrived here from Karen Baker's AMAZING blog! If not, no worries...you can start from the beginning by clicking HERE and heading to the DeNami Design Blog!

In honor of the warm summer days we've been having here in the mountains, I've layered up some scoops of ice cream for today's hop! YUM!


I kind of went back and forth on the layout. In the end, I decided to let the layered oval extend beyond the edge of the card. What do you think??? Do you like it? Or...do you think I should have trimmed off the right hand edge of the oval to make it flush with the edge of the card?


I covered the cherry on top with a red rain dot to add dimension.

Thanks for hopping along with us today! Remember to comment on each participant's blog for the maximum number of chances to win a prize!!! You have until 11:59PM PST on July 11, 2011 to leave your comments!!

I'm a big fan of overhanging edges and I think this is perfect! What a fun way to incorporate layers too, so clever!

Debbie Bonczek said...

I love your design. The colors are really awesome, and the choice of pattern paper for the background. Overhanging edges are awesome. I always say, if it fits in an envelope, it stays off the edge!

Love your card. I really need to get that ice cream cone stamp. The colors are great and the oval off the side gives great dimension. It's a winner in my book.

I love your layers of ice cream on this yummy cone!! Great color choices. And think it looks FABULOUS with the oval extending over the edge. I think that adds a lot of visual interest. Great card!!

Love the oval extending off the edge!

I like how the oval extends beyond the edge of the card base. Great idea for the theme...layering the ice cream. Too sweet!

Nikka Geers said...

I agree with Karen, I think it's just fine to have it extend, and it looks fantastic. Cute ice cream cone scoops, too!

Sue Lelli said...

Lisa, GORGEOUS colors and I LOVE how you layered ice cream! (in addition to all of the other FAB layers on your card!)

Isha Gupta said...

Sweet and cute card:))

Candycat said...

I like that you lopped off the edge of the oval! I tend to like things "centered," though...so I also liked it complete & offset but that would be a doozy to mail. I could also live w/it centered but it's daring to chop it off at the edge & I like that look! Nifty card!

Jennifer said...

Hi Lisa,

What a fun card!!! :) And I absolutely LOVE the way you have the oval hanging over the edge! It looks so good and adds visual interest!

Thank you so much for sharing and for the chance to win,
