Hang In There

By Cards

Hi All,

I’m back with a super fun and simple card. For this card I featured some of the diecuts from the Basic Grey “what’s up” collection. There’s something I absolutely love about aqua’s and reds mixed together. I thought the combination was so bright and playful. I took the banners from the collection and pierced some holes in the corners so that I could thread in some string. I finished it with a few wooden button embellishments and wahla!

Happy Birthday Balloon

By Cards

Hi all,

I don’t know why, but I’ve been on such a hot air balloon kick lately with my cards. I think is my favorite! I’ve been getting into the practice of designing the interior of my cards to coordinate with the exterior and this card is a prime example of how awesome it is when both sides come together!

Here is the outside

And here is the inside!

As nice as it looks in pictures, this card looks so pretty in reality.

Thanks for stopping by! =)

Online Card Class – Day 2

By Cards

Hi all,

Here we are on day 2 and challenge number 2 for Clean & Simple cards. Todays “homework” is to create a 1 layer card. Believe it or not, this was a huge challenge for me, as I always tend to gravitate toward using physical layers to create a card. For today’s card I wanted to not only make a card, but use an added technique that was shown by the amazing Jennifer McGuire using rainbow colors and watercolor inks. To get the affect I wanted I used InkTense pencils.

Here’s my take on the assignment.

KW Class - Smile

Supplies:

Card Base: Hero Hues Notecard – Blues

Stamp: Stampendous Sunny Flowers

Washi Tape: Freckled Fawn Telephone Wire Washi tape

Online Card Class – Bonus Day 1

By Cards

onlinecardclass

Hi all,

I was super excited to wake up today to find that we had a bonus day this week for Online Card Class. The designers all had cards that were themed around die-cuts and asked for students to create a card using die-cuts. Although, I don’t own any physical wafer dies (like they used), I do own a Silhouette (die cutting machine). I immediately headed over the the Silhouette store and downloaded a free die to play with. I love the way this card turned out ! It can easily double as a masculine card.

Here’s my contribution towards Bonus Day 1
