Thinking of you

This card is based on the Wishes sketch, Sentiment Secured (page 78).

No, I didn't stamp the flower using white daisy ink. Instead, I used the technique where you stamp on the backside of the paper, trace the image with your stylus, then flip the paper over and sand it to reveal the white core of the cardstock. I like the effect.

Supplies: All CTMH. Paper: Whoops A Daisy. Stamp sets: Dainty Thoughts, Buttoned Together, Star Struck and Treasures of the Heart. Colors: White pigment. Embellishments: White grossgrain ribbon.

Thinking of you

So, I didn't really feel like creating yesterday ... but heck, I was on a roll. Now, I'm seven for seven. Whoo hoo. I am, though, stuck in a rut - with this sketch of a horizontal strip across the card with some sort of block skewed to one side. It seems that many of my recent cards have followed this sketch ... so maybe for tonight, I'll pull out a sketch and see if I can do something different. Anyhow, I like the card, I like the bright colors, and I feel productive with my card making. Toot toot for me!


Here is the card I made last night. WhoopsADaisy paper was strewn all about my room, as I was preparing a swap kit over the weekend (and haven't yet cleaned up). I actually don't think I've ever used this paper, but it's pretty fun. I could see this as a great paper for "girlfriend" cards.



Materials - [all CTMH unless otherwise noted] paper: WhoopsADaisy; stamps: Playful Fluorishes, Spot On Backgrounds, Say It In Style; ink: Hydrangea, Ocean; tools: SU! scallop circle punch, CM circle punch; other: flower, Doodlebug ric rac, unknown ribbon


Can I make it eight for eight? Check back tomorrow and see!
