I have three cards to share with you today - all homework for days 10 and 11 of online card class.
On day 10, the designers and teachers shared more fun ways to stretch those stamps. I loved Laurie Willison's beautiful card and wanted to try it. Here's my take:
Laurie used Fun Foam for her die-cut sentiment but I didn't have any, so I used 6 pieces of Neenah Solar White 110# cardstock. I love how the stamped leaves look on the sentiment! They are from the Paper Smooches set, Botanicals 2.
My next card was inspired by Dawn. It was fun playing with colored embossing powder again!
I think the bright colors look so cool against the dark, navy panel. I again used the Botanicals 2 set and added some white Enamel Accents here and there. The sentiment is from Mama Elephant's Up and Away set.
For my last card, I used the fun, Rounded Diamonds set from Avery Elle.
Laura Bassen shared a beautiful card using the same set. I took her design and flipped it to create a top folding card and added a couple of thin strips of DCWV Glitter Paper. The sentiment was created by using two different stamps. This, Hello Friend by Technique Tuesday and this one from WPlus9 called, Hand Lettered Thanks. I just masked off the frame and "hello" portion before stamping, then added the "you're the best" above it. Love stretching those sentiment stamps too!
Okay, I'm off to get a few things done around here then I'm hoping to play with more stamps later today. I sure have enjoyed this class! I always learn so much!
Thanks for the visit - have a great weekend! ♥
