THINKING OF YOU CHALLENGE CARD

 

There's a new challenge at CARDMAKER MAGAZINE BLOG 

It's a great sketch and I had fun with it.

 

I use this Thinking of You stamp from QUIETFIRE DESIGN a lot! It has a smaller size as well, in the same set. I chose two designer papers from my stash, stamped on the lighter one, and used the darker one for the large mat. Two strips of grey were embossed, distress ink was applied to some of the edges, and the flower centers.

Once all the pieces were cut, inked and embossed, it was easy to put the card together.

 

I encourage you to try a challenge today. It's always fun to see what everyone comes up with.

 

Thanks for stopping by, and have a terrific day!

 

COLOUR Q & THINKING OF YOU

Tulips for Spring. Colour Q is giving us a peek at what we can hope to see in a month or so. These ones will last much longer. :)

 

Now that I see this card, I wonder if I shouldn't have reversed the colour placement. I mean, calypso coral for the background and daffodil delight for the butterflies, still edged with cherry cobbler.

For now, I'll share the technique used here.

It's called Puzzle Piece Resist and you can find the full tutorial HERE. 

This shows the clear embossing and the puzzle piece butterflies .

 

 

You can see what others have done with the Colour Q challenge HERE.

 

I hope you can find some time to try the colour challenge and/or the technique.

Flex some creative  muscle today!
