Summer Card Camp 2011 Day Two

It is day 2 of the Summer Card Camp. Today's class was a window card based on a video from Jennifer McGuire. She showed us lots of new techniques to create our cards.


After a slow start, I think my recycling bag is full of my rejected ideas, I came up with this card. Jennifer's card had a large stamped flower that she colored with markers. Well, I have small flower stamps and my markers didn't work very well (I guess I need some new ones).  So I had to come up with another idea.


Here is what I did: I stamped my little flowers with a VersaMark Watermark stamp pad and then embossed them with Zing embossing powder. I hung them inside the window with thread and then backed them with a piece of transparency so they wouldn't flip around. I drew dots around the window with my Signo pen and added some bakers twine to the sentiment. 

The papers are from Basic Grey and Bazzill. The stamps are from Lawn Fawn.

I can't wait to see what tomorrow's class will bring.

Summer Card Camp 2011

I'm excited about taking this class:

Here is my first card for the class. I really like the color combination. I can't find the name of the company that made the blue pattern paper. The pink paper is from Basic Grey, the orange dot paper is from BoBunny and the cardstock is from Bazzill. I used the Hero Arts Friendship Definition stamp and the Thanks stamp is Lawn Fawn's Sophie's Sentiments. I also used the Paisley Cricut Cartridge to cut the butterfly.

I'm excited to see what tomorrow's color combination will be.
