Core'dinations Design Team Call

I love to challenge myself to create things for design team calls.  Core'dinations is this awesome "no white core" cardstock.  I have a rather large collection of cardstock and this brand is always one of my favorites.  Here are a few examples I created using this cardstock.

 I created this beachy themed layout using the Vintage Collections. I love how it added so much texture with cardstock!  Check out this up close look at those die cuts.  To make the seaweed I used a Martha Stewart leaf border punch and cut it apart!  Super Fun!

 Next up my birthday card.  I used a bi-fold pattern that I have never tried before and love the results. 

 For this card I used the Solid CoreCardstock and punches and embossing.  Very simple but lots of impact!  Love the de-bossed look on the right side!

Next up a thank you card.  You can never have too many thank you cards waiting to be sent!

For this card I used the Vintage collection and the White Wash Collection.  I also used my paper piercer and my sewing machine!  Once again I used my leaf border punch to make the leaf-y background for the burlap flowers.  I sanded all the edges of the White Wash Cardstock to show off the red core underneath.  Below you can see the texture in that Vintage Cardstock !   Stunning!
