It's Sue here. It's sad to see paper-crafting businesses closing. My Favorite Things has been around for some time. I have many of their stamps, stencils and dies. However, I admit that I haven't been shopping there recently. There just is so much competition for my crafty dollars. They are hosting our July challenge here and will be giving our winner a $25 gift card. Thank you My Favorite Things - not just for your generosity but also for being part of the paper-crafting landscape for many years.
Our July challenge is BIRTHDAY CARDS.
Here's my card
For my card, I used My Favorite Things' Square Extraordinaire stencil (retired) where I ink blended a light blue square using tumbled glass distress ink on a white A2 card panel. I stamped the sentiment using My Favorite Things' Celebrate You (retired) and Gina K Design's Soft Stone ink. I die cut some flowers, leaves, stems from white cardstock using My Favorite Things' Show of Support dies. I used mini ink blending brushes and distress inks (ripe persimmon, picked raspberry, peacock feathers, wilted violet, mowed lawn, mustard seed) to add color to the die cuts. I arranged them on the card panel and glued them in place. To complete my card, I adhered the panel to a white A2 card base with double-sided tape.
We'd love to see your birthday card creations in our gallery this month.
