I had a lot of fun making it, and I love the effect of the paper piercing on kraft cardstock.</span><br />

I've been on a bit of a knitting and sewing kick lately, so that's my excuse ;)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Here's a card I made a couple of months ago for a friend - she needed a new baby card to send and commissioned one from me:</span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Everything on there is pretty much SU, mostly retired.</span>PikkuLillahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16963230767532277840noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8053661777241275442.post-27232616670157046872014-08-03T00:05:00.000-07:002014-08-03T13:41:11.428-07:00Choose Happiness card<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I had a lot of fun making this card using my new SU stamps (Choose Happiness set) and Word Bubbles framelits. The flower was stamped in Crushed Curry and I then used an aqua painter to draw the colour out over the petals to give it a gently watercoloured feel. The sentiment is Hero Arts but everything else is SU (except the card base which is a generic one from elsewhere).</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Sorry about the bad lighting on this - I was taking it at the wrong time of day (night)!</span>PikkuLillahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16963230767532277840noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8053661777241275442.post-24287537819493185892014-08-02T23:50:00.000-07:002014-08-02T23:50:39.669-07:00Guy card<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I love this CAS card - it came together so easily. SU's Wild Wasabi is one of my favourite colours but I haven't used it in ages so it was great to use it again. And I am so chuffed with how the negative space speech bubble turned out!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">There's also some scoring on there for a bit of texture.

Thankfully, when the recipient gets it out of the envelope they'll be close enough to appreciate its beauty... ;)</span><br />

The sentiment is from an Archiver's set.</span><br />

I ended up making 3 each of 2 designs , which means that 6 people have a halfway chance of actually getting a card on time this year ;)</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I love the colour combo, and the grey ribbon which I think I got wrapped around some clothing I bought. Repurpose, recycle and reuse! :)</span><br />

It's simple yet effective, I think!</span><br />

I had a lot of fun making them (3 of the same design) even though they were very simple - it was wonderful to just sit down and play with my rubber stamps and ink!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Here is a pic of the card; it was impossible to get a good photo of it indoors, so I had to balance it on my hand outside on the patio (which is why the angle is a bit odd).</span><br />

The paper is Docraft's Christmas Back to Basics Modern and the button is from the coordinating pack. I used some vellum too to give a bit of depth. The ink is SU Real Red and River Rock, and the stamps are Hero Arts and SU.</span><br />

It's not my usual style but I really like it, and want to try and challenge myself to make more of this kind of "collage"-type card. I need practice layering up lots of embellishments!</span><br />
