How is your week going? Hope you had a great weekend. We had a nice weekend. Celebrated my nephew's birthday and spent some time at Greenfield Village ( a living history park). Today, I have some pretty cards to share with you. I made the cards for my friend. She enjoys sending out cards to keep in touch and encourage friends and family-----I keep her supplied with lots of fun cards.
The cards were made with a digi from A Day For Daisies colored with Copic markers. I choose a monochromatic color scheme to keep it simple and for a soft, restful feel.
Materials:
Stamp: A Day For Daisies digi stamp
CS: White; soft green and blue gingham - A Muse Studios
Copic Markers
Spellbinders dies
Ribbon
Instructions:
- Make A2 cards from CS
- Print the digis on white CS
- Let the ink dry thoroughly before coloring
- Color with Copic Markers
- Die cut the images and add to the card base
- Add a pretty ribbon bow
I really like how the colors are so soothing and simple. Yet the die cut is very intricate and balances out the simplistic color scheme.
*************A few fun Challenges for my pretty fairies:
A Day For Daisies: monochromatic
Allsorts: fairies
Through the Purple Haze: monochromatic
Pile It on: add some flowers
Stamping Sensations: Summer blooms
House of Cards: add a bow
Tok Bobok: monochromatic
Hope you are having a great day!! See you next time for more card crafty fun!! Love ya.
