Good Morning Ladies,
I had a bit of 'marathon' card making session yesterday, I was home alone, which is not my favourite way to start the week, but I got my head into gear and got ready for the day, I set my laptop up with YouTube playing for a bit of background noise and got stuck in. Having the TicTacToe does help you focus your ideas a bit more. I also picked out some stamps and was determined ti use them. I think if you focus on one stamp set or a die of a colour theme its easier to get going. I know you ladies are the same as me and have a huge range of craft stash in your room, so sitting down and picking one thing is so hard.
I used categories: Emboss / Color Cube / Flowers
I picked out Color Cube card 321 and matched the Grey (silver) , orange (peach) and pink ( hot pink) from card 321 I matched Distress Oxides : Pumice Stone, Wild Honey & Kitsch Flamingo .
I stamped and embossed the Inkylicious meadow stamp in black. Then I masked off a rectangle and blended the three inks up the rectangle finishing with the pink. I mounted the piece onto a black mat and then onto a white card base.
I hope that you all have a good day,
Love & Hugs to all of you,
Sandra xxx
Beautiful I would never have thought to use a grey (Pumice Stone) without using the Color Cube I love how the image “overhangs” the background too
ReplyDeleteI agree that having a Tic Tac Toe to follow does give us a bit of focus
Take care everyone xx
Hi, chilly again, had to get the heater out again last night.
ReplyDeleteAnother great card, I agree the cards give your brain a good nudge.
Spent yesterday watching the tennis from Queens, had to watch it on iPlayer otherwise it cost extra to get the tennis channel and we pay too much now for sky.
Hope you all have a good day. Lilian
Lovely card, these colour cards really make you think about colour combos I certainly wouldn’t have thought to put together,
ReplyDeleteWent out in the garden for a while this afternoon, it was ok as long as you stayed in the sun. I can always find a job to do out there what ever the weather.
Sleep well dear friends, love Brenda xxx
Hi Sandra and everyone. A lovely card for us today. As the others have said the c cubes do help you put different colours together like on this card xx
ReplyDeleteI have had a long day doing lots of silly little boring jobs.
Sleep well. Take care. Love Sue xx
