Hello! Popping in to share two cards that I made for several challenges. First up is a card I made for Color Throwdown and the May Pinkfresh Studio challenge of flowers. Take a look.
This next card is for Freshly Made Sketches and the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge. Take a look.
I found the FMS sketch to be a bit of a challenge for me. I wanted to use patterned paper for the card and used some green and blue plaid paper from a Memory Box 6x6 pad. I die cut the center rectangle and then flipped the paper over to cut the strips from the other side. I think I got my strips too close to the center rectangle, but no going back now, lol! The center rectangle was popped up with foam squares and the strips around the rectangle with thin foam squares. I had previously inked up some white cardstock with brown and blue distress oxide inks (vintage photos, gathered twigs and blueprint sketch) so I used those to die cut my little Birch Press Design Budding Twigs from those. Some of the pieces have alot of inking and some only a little. I liked the variation it provided. I adhered the twigs together and then attached them to the center rectangle. I finished with the twine bow and an Open Studio "happy birthday" sentiment tab.
That's it for me. Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!
