This card is for the CAS Colours and Sketches Challenge#456. Please see the original post at http://cascoloursandsketches.blogspot.com/2022/02/challenge-456-sketch.html
I really enjoy car challenges because I get to try something perhaps a bit different. I don't do a whole lot of sketching, but I took out my brush pens and had a good time with this. I also used a little bit of inking to give a little texture to the background on this clean and simple card.
It also is my day two entry for the 100 day project, in which I will be creating something everyday all the way through May 24th.
Can find me on Instagram and YouTube as crafty blind girl.
Hello there! I am participating in the 100 day project. So, for the next hundred days, I will be creating something or part of something each and every day. Today's was a quickie. I'm not big on Valentine's day, but I needed to give a card to my mom and her husband. I learned how to make a simple origami heart a couple of weeks ago, and that made for the basis of this card. Is basically two pieces of paper with a little focaligraphy in it.
The photo shows a white card base with a red origami heart.
And the crafty blind girl on instagram, and you can see and connect with me there.
I had so much fun making cards today. I used strips of paper and often Z-folds or other funky folds.
Inspiration
I attended this Youtube "class" (live video) and made along with and after Karen. She also has a PDF you can download from the description section.
My Makes
First, this is a Z-fold card. I used a couple of strips of a pretty patterned card stock and some fun animal thickers (puffy stickers).
This Z-fold card also used a strip of patterned cardstock. The cute little dashchund sticker inspired the sentiment I lettered.
Here's another Z-fold. I had this cute little Hello circle with the doggies, and I thought that made for the perfect sentiment that harmonizes with the patterned paper strips.
I can only call this a "Funky Fold card, because it's more than a z-fold. I used some paper scraps, and a couple of cute dog stickers made this one. I made this for a cancer patient. There's even a hydrant on an interior bit, but you can see it in this picture! I just love the bug-eyed doggy!
This blue card base has strips of patterned paper with a little space between, then an oval wiht the kitty. I lettered Hello. I could have used a stamp, but it's easy enough for me to letter my own!
The little kitty in the upper corner is a thicker. I have no idea what possessed me to but away the edge of the card and put it on the card interior, but isn't it cute???
Here is essentially the same card but with the corner folded back and 3 thikers instead of 1.
I put a wide strip of fun patterned paper on this pink card base, then I added a heart with the doggy and a thicker below.
"I miss you" just seemed like the perfect sentiment for me to letter.
Totally breaking theme, I had made the topper but sometime a few weeks ago but never got it glued to a base, so here 'tis. A cheerful get well greeting.
This was a card I made for a challenge.
I hope this gives you some useful ideas!
Thanks for stopping by! I hope you like these cards! I really love the die set. You can make the whole card structure with ease.
