The first card I have to show you today is from
stampTV's Blast From The Past challenge. Linda Payne challenged us to make a card (or two) with the Split Negative Technique. Now, this technique was not very nice to me when I first started creating, but I finally ended up with a card I am pleased with and it is posted below. The stamps I used are both from Gina K. Designs, the irises are from Elegant Flowers and the sentiment from Say It With Flowers. Sentiment was cut with Nestabilities Ribbon Tag Trio 2 and the ribbons are also from Gina K. Designs.
I will also be using this card for the
Midnight Madness Challenge. Again, I'm going for the clean and simple version of the challenge and I changed the oval to a circle. Their challenge sketches are shown here:
This second card is for
The Color Dare Challenge #72. Colors are Sahara Sand, Barely Banana, Blush Blossom, Certainly Celery, and Whisper White. I used a Sizzix embossing folder (Phrase, Thank You) and sponged ink on the raised areas. I call this my card of subtle colors!
Thanks for stopping by......
