hi…


This was a fun way to use all the colors.
I had some great “hi” xtra large dies to cut the sentiment from white card stock.
Then I used Distress colors with A Colorful Life Designs “Grass Edger 3” stenicls.



leftovers…


I don’t know about you but I have a very hard time trying to photograph my slimline cards to get them in a square for posting.
I ended up using a piece of 12x12 for a background.
The card was made from plaid 12x12 paper.
The brown frames were leftovers from a bunch of cards I made recently and the sentiment, Paper Smooches, stamped on another leftover where I used the negative on another card.

valentine…


I spent a day last week creating cards with a heart die that had many little hearts in it and thought I should save them in case I needed them…

I pulled out the largest of them to create the card for this challenge.
I colored each with Distress Oxide ink to match the color code.
Then I glued them on white card stock and stamped it with sentiments from My Favorite Things “Itty Bitty Love”.
This I added to a pink and brown base card.




XOXO…


When I saw this prompt I knew immediately that I wanted to use my new, to me, Lawn Fawn “Giant XOXO” die!
I made a background for it with a blank rubber stamp and Distress inks to create a rainbow.
Then I used white and black card stocks to create the card.



monochrome…


This is a teaching post for all of you who try something, don’t like it and throw it away.
The main panel of this card was made over 6 months ago with white card stock, Distress ink and a dandelion stamp, unknown company, which I might not even have anymore.
I really didn’t like it but I tossed it in my pre-made pile just in case.
Today I found the perfect card stock for a layer and sentiment die cut to make a monochrome card!
