VSN is still in full swing. Here are a few more of my challenge cards. On the left is my “Fancy Nancy” card. I love those CTMH girl stamps! I paper pieced her jacket to match the pattern paper used along the bottom. I’ve done punch work on the bottom of a card before, but never the top – I really love how that turned out.
The next card is “Purple”! The challenge was to use purple – even just a little bit – but I wanted the whole card to be purple. I love the SU Dots & Daisies background because of how cute it looks when you color in the flowers.
The final card, “Find Beauty”, is for the watercolor challenge. I’m not a big fan of watercolor crayons, but I wanted to try something different with them. I colored directly onto the rubber, spritzed with water, and stamped. The images aren’t as dark as I would prefer, but since the idea is watercolor, it works 🙂
Fancy Nancy – Flower Girls (CTMH), Bits & Pieces (TAC); Pretty in Pink Prints paper (SU); beads, bling, ribbon, Fiskars border punch
Purple – Dots & Daisies (SU), Borders & Corners (PTI); ribbon, brads, scallop & circle punches
Find Beauty – Finding Beauty (CMTH); Close to Cocoa, Enchante (SU); scallop & circle punches
These are all great cards (especially considering all the limitations of the time when it comes to challenges). My favorite is the one with the CTMH girl stamp. I haven’t seen that set before but it reminds me of an older set (back from wood mounted days…gasp) where there were trendy women walking dogs. I love that set for simple chic cards. And this is the same style. Love it!
