Online Card Class – Day 10

By Cards

Hi All,

Well, this post marks the end of the second week of Online Card Class, I am so sad to see the class nearing its end =(. I have learned SO much from this class and can’t even believe the number of cards that were contributed to the galleries for additional inspiration. For today’s assignment we were asked to make multiple cards using 1 stamp set. I used the Follow Your Heart stamp set by My Minds Eye to create my 3 cards. Here they are!

Card One:

For this card I used the banner stamp to create a road sign and cut the “enjoy the journey” apart to create 3 separate stamps for a bike trail. Also, I used a blacked-out ticket stamp in a repeated fashion to create the brick pattern on the bottom of the card. I absolutely love the way it turned out. Super simple, but effective!

Card Two:

For card two I used used the light bulb stamp in a staggered way to create visual significance and hand wrote a sentiment. I then covered the bulbs in glossy accents for extra shine. Super simple!

Card Three:

Added some paper to the background and repeatedly stamped the banner. I then stamped the light bulb onto a polka dot patterned paper to get “colored bulbs” and hung them upside down. I then covered the bulbs with some diamond stickles so they create a soft shine/glow!

Week One Summer Card Camp Series – Color Challenge

By Cards

Hi all!

Today I’m excited to share a project I made in conjunction with summer card camp over at onlinecardclasses. It’s only been a few days since the camp started but I have already learned so much! I love about the technicalities to creating cards and other craft projects. In class, each week students are given a color challenge in which he or she has to use the color scheme provided to create a project.

Here is the scheme for week 1.

Here is the card I came up with using the themes and techniques used by the teachers themselves. I enjoyed learning about layering shapes and designs and how to group images. So interesting!

Hello Summer

Thanks for learning with me and stopping by!

Hi All,

Wow, how quickly time has flown into the second week of card camp! We’re on to week two and once again I am fully engulfed in all the awesome designs and techniques being shared over on the class blog. I’ve got to say this was one of the best choices I made in joining this class.

Here is this week’s color combo challenge:

Here is the card I came up with. I’m super happy with the way it turned out. I can see my skills growing and aim to only get better when it comes to balance and contrast in card making.

Week Three Summer Card Camp Series – Color Challenge

By Cards

Hi All,

This weeks color challenge had me stuck. I had no clue where to begin. I created multiple cards but just wasn’t feeling that it was what I wanted to share. I went back to the drawing board multiple times and finally came up with the design below. I decided that maybe the colors reminded me more of christmas and decided to dig into some of my holiday supplies to see if there was anything that I could come up with. It was at that moment, I found a fantastic set of rub on transfers from Basic Grey.

Here is this week’s color combo:
