I’ve had such a good week. Sleeping in, crafting, playing with the kids and I’ve also won 2 awards for my cards! I was a top pick at Just Add Ink for my blue butterfly card and I was also a Cut Above winner at Paper Players for my Here for You card. I was so excited to be chosen by these two great sites.
I have been making more cards using the grid technique to give to my daughters’ violin teacher. I’ve made them all slightly differently, please leave me a comment and let me know which one you like best.
I found another challenge site this week too which looks fun. It’s called Stampin’ Celebration and the challenge for this week is chocolate and flowers. I decided to use the grid technique and use pip and choc chip and of course flowers.
This one has a more vintage feel to it than the other cards I think. I used pip to sponge onto the vanilla and stamped in choc chip. This is similar to what I did with the other cards, but this time I also wheeled over the entire piece with the very vintage wheel using crumb cake. It is subtle, but made the card more “vintagy” and lovelier I think.
Ingredients :
Stamps : Because I care, elements of style, friendly words wheel, very vintage wheel, all a flutter
Card : pink pirouette, very vanilla, crumb cake, shimmery white
Ink : pip, choc chip, crumb cake, stazon
Other : aquapainter, pip taffeta ribbon, mini glue dots, hodgepodge hardware, scallop trim border punch, sponges
This is beautiful. Love the pastel colours. You'll have to explain a bit more about the 'grid technique' to me.
