Hi and Happy Monday,
I have a quick post with a couple of challenge cards. Both use Concord & 9th stamps and dies, and coincidentally, they are food related. (that wasn't actually planned, LOL)
First up is a card for the current Freshly Made Sketches challenge. I'm squeaking in just before the entry closes today. I made most of this card late last night, and finished it this morning.
The second card is made for Ann's Kards for Kids challenge for The Paper Players. This week is Clean & Simple week and I made basically a one layer card with the exception of some die cuts on the front. I started by masking off a rectangle area and ink blending a rainbow. I then die cut the food images and stamped the corresponding messages. This stamp and die set from Concord & 9th is called Love You More Than.
After die cutting the food images I used Copics to add some shading and additional color.
For the inside, the greeting is from the same stamp set but the kids are from a really old Hero Arts wood stamp. I think it works well for the challenge theme and for my card.
Such fabulous cards! The ice blocks (as we call them here in New Zealand) look so refreshing and your colour choices are wonderful! Thanks so much for joining us at Freshly Made Sketches.
ReplyDeleteOh, Colleen! I absolutely adore your cards. The blended background on the "Love You More" card is amazing. And those die cuts...cutest things EVER! The pepperoni hearts on the pizza are so sweet! Thank you for sharing with The Paper Players this week as we celebrate our 600th challenge!
ReplyDeleteBoth cards are great, but my mouth is REALLY watering after looking at the second one! Your blending is fabby but the food....yum! So cute for a kid's card! Thanks for playing!
