Hello! I finished up a card today for the current challenge at the Festive Friday Blog. If you’d like to play along, please click on the link here: (#FF0200) For the challenge, I chose yellow, tulips, dry embossing, and Happy Birthday Assembly: To make this card I used Unity’s “All Good Things” stamp set. I began with lightweight multimedia paper cut to 4 x 5 1/4 in. I stamped in Ranger Sepia Archival ink, and loosely watercolored from ink pads (Daffodil Delight, Gumball Green (SU) Next, I partially embossed with Stampin Up’s Scripty embosding folder. The embossing and edges were blended with Gumball Green ink (SU). The sentiment came from Stampin Up’s “Go to Greetings.” The sentiment was stamped in Early Espresso Ink (SU) and die cut. The card was embellished with twine (thanks Unity!) and mounted onto a card base measuring 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 (Gumball Green card stock SU). Have a great week! - Valerie Kaye
I’m glad you stopped by! I have always enjoyed art, and was introduced to card making about 12 years ago. From there, the ability to create a variety of styles provides a therapeutic outlet to each day. You will find several card challenges, and themes which might inspire you to try something new. Enjoy!
