Card Camp Finale

Here's my last project for Card Camp using this weeks colours.

I love how these colours look together.

The flower and sentiment are from Hero Arts To/From Petals stamp set. The flower was inked with a Kaleidacolor pad in Caribbean Sea and the background was done with Hero Arts Designer Woodgrain stamp in Memento Summer Sky.

It's been a fun four weeks of Card Camp!

Card Camp Week 3

I can't believe it's already week 3 of Card Camp. Time sure flies! Here are this weeks colours.

This was another challenge for me as I don't really use colours in the brown family very often. Thank goodness I got to use some red!

There's not much stamping going on here, just for the sentiment. Instead I decided to play with Papertrey Inks Beautiful Blooms II #3 dies and layer them using this weeks colours. I really like how the flowers pop on the red background!

Card Camp - Week Two

Well it's Week Two of Card Camp and here are the colours we have to play with.

Very fun colours but I had a hard time incorporating all of them into my project.  I think I was a little over ambitious mixing all these colours and patterns.  I find this card a little "busy".

I made a rainbow of scallop borders that I stamped with Hero Arts Envelope Pattern, to add a bit of texture. I used Versamark on the kraft c/s with Hero Arts Antique Flower Background and Distress Inks on the flower and leaf from the Dots n Flowers set, also from Hero Arts. I added some lace (first time using some on a project) and a wavy banner.

Card Camp Part Two

I really enjoyed playing with the colour combo from Summer Card Camp, such vivid and happy colours.

And here's my second card.

I just love these dotty butterflies from Memory Box. I clear embossed them for some shine and mounted onto a card base stamped with Hero Arts Woodgrain stamp. The greeting is a stamp from the Stampin Up set called So Happy For You.

Wishing all Canadians a happy Canada Day tomorrow!

Summer Card Camp

I'm enrolled in "Summer Camp" with Jennifer McGuire & Kristina Werner. This is not your average summer camp. It involves papercrafting, getting inky and learning some fun techniques.

Here is this weeks colour combo.

Not colours I would think of putting together but that's what this is all about. Trying new things, and I really had a fun time with these vibrant colours!

I used some pigment ink and a stamp from Outlines Rubber Stamp Company to create my card. I added some paper piercing and used Kassie's Brocade embossing folder on my cardbase.
