Colored Card Base



Hi Everyone,

jumping on the colored card base bandwagon. Less is More and AAA Card Challenges teamed up and want us to make a one layer card using a colored card base. And since I had no idea what to do for this spotlight post I figured I do just that. I like making one layer cards anyhow.

I am so stealing this idea, method, technique...don't care what you call it. That white sharpie made this already pretty bouquet jump off the card and make it spectacular. Genius...that's you.

There's a white sharpie?! I had no idea but, boy, does it really add some pop to a colored card base. Very pretty colors and a great card for the color challenge over at The Paper Players. Thanks for playing! ~ Annie

Easter Egg and Bunny

Hi Everyone, I made a bunch of Easter cards, after all its little more than one month and I need to send them out in time... You see, they are all similar - using both the die cut and the negative, that I cut from a die cut egg.

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. Well, I'll see how it goes....                           Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it.
