Hello Everyone, Welcome to our Wednesday card sketch challenge at the Paper Craft Crew.  Here's our sketch this week    I'm using some designer papers called Merry Moments combined with Festival of Trees stamp and greeting from Teeny Tiny Sentiments.  The cardstock used is Whisper White and Smoky Slate with inks of Old Olive and Real Red.  The greeting comes from the Teeny Tiny Sentiments stamp set and has been punched out with the Washi Tape punch. Here's a closer look.  I love how the Designer papers add so much colour this this card.  The Festival of trees stamp has been combined with the Tree punch for this card. Thanks so much for joining me this week to view my card.  For more inspiration please visit the Paper Craft Crew challenge and see what our other Designers have created this week. Have a great day.

Music Teacher Farewell // Paper Players #173 Shaped Card Challenge

Image
Hello Everyone, It's a sad week for my daughter and her friends who have really enjoyed what the music program offered them at the High School this year.  Their very talented teacher will be moving on to a new school and they're having a little party for their last day of the Vocal ensemble practice which was an extra activity that he undertook with the students, as well as teaching them to play all sorts of instruments in lesson times. His speciality though, Guitar!  I have decided to enter this card into the Paper Players Shaped Card Challenge this week.  While not specifically made for the challenge, I think it's a pretty cool shape and fits the criteria.  I also think more people deserve to see this card. When asked to make a card for the group to give him, with that in mind I found some inspiration on Pinterest and came up with this card. The hardest part for me was getting the shaping right, and I had to call on my Artistic daughter to draw the edge...

Create with Connie and Mary - CCMC229

Image
Hi Everyone, Here is this weeks Sketch Challenge from Create with Connie and Mary which I've decided to play along with. I've changed my card up a little from the sketch you see.  Instead of the flower on the sketch being the focal point, I've used a Bow and Vintage Brad.  I've used the Stamp Set Forever Young on my card stamped with Stazon Ink and I've brayered the background with Baja Breeze and Pear Pizzazz inks.  The patterned paper on my card is from the Festival of Prints stack and my cardstock is Basic Black, Whisper White, Very Vanilla and Pool Party, with some Pool Party Seam Binding.  The greeting is from the Itty Bitty Banners stamp set. Here is a closer look at the double bow I hope you've enjoyed stopping by.  Please leave me a comment as I really enjoy reading them and appreciate your time taken to leave it.
