Hello. Man, have I been struggling with my mojo. Just can't seem to get a card finished that I am happy with. I made two cards for the current challenge on the CASology Challenge blog. Our cue card is:
My first card used the My Favorite Things band aid die set. I started with 110 lbs white cardstock. Using the smaller band aid, I die cut the 3 windows. Also cutting the shape from the 3 colors of card stock to fill the windows. I stamped the greeting from Papertrey Ink in turquoise ink. Messed up the front of card so I stamped it on a scrap of white cardstock and popped it up with foam tape to cover the smeared greeting.
After my frustration with the first card I looked for some inspiration from some cards I had printed from the PTI blog. I pulled out the color card and thought that I was just going to use greetings for my card. I like to challenge myself sometimes. lol. Using the one stamp set from Papertrey I stamped out the greetings both vertical and horizonal. I did cheat a little with the stitched set to fill in.
So I am showing you that it is not all smooth sailing when creating. Hope you can come join us on the challenge this week. Now go check out all the other talented ladies cards.
Thanks for stopping by, Sue.
Love both these cards, Sue! The layout with the stack of band-aids is awesome! And the sentiment collage in the corner is so fun!
