Life Imagined

Hello (last time for today, I promise) Readers,

This the last of my African inspired cards for today. As usual, I will be playing along with Colour INKspirational, Pinspirational, CASology, and Freshly Made Sketches. Here is my final card for tonight, enjoy!

The world and, again, the geometric element are both on one layer. The sentiment strip was placed over the images. Lots of white space and look at that image with Africa front and center of the stamp.

The geometric strip was masked and then sponged
using different shades of orange.

Challenges Entered:
PINspirational: Challenge #237

CASology: Week 340- Africa

Freshly Made Sketches: FMS385
Colour INKspirations: #CI54 - Black and White with a 'pop' of colour.

 

Thank you so much for stopping by and do appreciate you taking time out of your busy day to spend time with me. I hope you all have a fantastic day and lots of good crafting vibes headed your way.

Black and White + one Color

Hello All,

For today I am playing along with Color INKspiration, Mix It Up, and Addicted to CAS.  I think this black and white theme is going to my head! Here is my card today, enjoy!!

Yes, Readers, I made a card for a card game. In conjunction with my cousin's family, we are making a Bonanza board for my aunt. This will, of course, be presented when we give her the board.

The suit of cards die cut is for the Bonanza board but I thought it would also make for a fantastic card. The white border is an inlay to look like one layer. The glittery suits are made from well... glitter. Before you laugh this is a technique where your adhesive is face up. Place the glitter on top of the adhesive and burnish. It was told to me that the glitter would not fall off. Humph... I say... Well it worked! And I was amazed!!

The sentiment is the only dimensional element on the card. It consists of black metallic designer paper, two layers of white, and one layer of black. This sentiment couldn't be more fitting.
