Hi friends!
I'm so excited to share a new challenge blog with you
called The Card Concept.
It's a bi-weekly challenge blog with
several very talented designers to inspire (VERY talented!),
and this is their very1st challenge!
Here's the challenge photo:
It's as simple as using the photo's colors
and choosing one of 6 style themes.
I'm a layering girl, so when I saw one of the styles was Clean and Layering,
I was in!
I quickly connected to Kay and Kerin with their lovely layered samples.
My card features Lil Inkers Stitched cover plate layered over a pink pattern paper, all over
PTI's Melon Berry cardstock.
And then more layers!
Happy Birthday medallion: PTI 2012 Birthday Tags
Ink: PTI Smokey Shadow
Cork border: Spellbinders Nestibilities Labels 4
Bigger Blooms &Turning a New Leaf dies: PTI
I'm absolutely smitten with the new Lunette and Oriel Butterfly dies from Memory Box!
I spritzed the wings with some Lindy's Stamp Gang Starburst 'Teeth Chattering Teal'
for a bit of shimmer.
Had some fun layering the clear embossed posies around.
Added some Stickles to the centers of a few of them.
Sorry about the long post, but I couldn't take a bad picture today.
How often does that happen?!?!?!
Be sure to visit The Card Concept, and see what style you would create.
There's a PS!
I'm awed by the challen'gees'
Wow there are some gorgeous entries!
PPS, Possible Classy & Elegant? Hard to decide.
Thanks Cathy for clarifying a bit!
