Non Winning Artisan Project #5

Lots and lots of pictures to share with you since my last card entry was a trifold one.  I even used a little piece of velcro to close it and made it more like a book or mini album that way.

 



 

The focus of the card was on the Storytime designer series paper.

 

I added a little chalkboard technique to the inside using the From My Heart stamp set with the idea that this could be a teacher thank you card.

April Stamp Club projects

 

This month for Stamp Club, we did a chalkboard technique card and I revamped a make and take I had used at a retreat recently for our second card.

 

 

For the layout, I created a hybrid one using the Lemonade Stand content disc that was available during Sale-a-bration and added some photo mats to the printed pages.

 

This card was used as a make and take recently, I added the ribbon and popped up the saying which comes from Wacky Wishes.  The other stamp set used on this card is Everything Eleanor.

 

The chalkboard technique card was a pretty simple one.  We had a layer of Perfect Plum that was embossed with the Lacy Brocade folder as the background and used the stamp set From My Heart for the sentiment.  I gave them the option of adding some doodles with a white gel pen as well.

From the Bottom of my Heart

 

The second swap card I made for my spring retreat is one that I apparently did not take a picture of before I swapped it.  I used the chalkboard technique and used the same stamp as the one below, except I use the Hearts a Flutter stamp set and embossed some hearts around the image using Pool Party embossing powder.

 

 

On this one I added some silver glimmer paper and a strip of Primrose Petals card stock and layered it all on some Crumb Cake card stock.
