Summer Card Samp 2 Pre-class card 3
Summer Card Camp Pre-class card 3 color combo
I paper pieced the umbrella and boots and then 3D'd the hedgehog. I haven't decided what, or if, I'll use for a greeting on this one.

I needed to make a card for a dear friend so decided to use this same color combo for her card. I dry embossed the base card, added pruchased flowers from my stash and then added the deep grey pearls to the centers.

I cut the words out with the "Walk in the Garden" Cricut cartridge, after I used a Cricut color marker. I used the heart punch to make my flowers (saw Jennifer do this a few days ago).
I am so looking forward to this class.

His/Her Card Idea
His / Her Card Class
A friend gave me a copy of the boy jeans. I made it into a shaped card, added faux stitching, a 3D pocket and frog and3D'd the buttons and then added Glossy Accents. Then I thought it would be cute to have a girl version and post it on the class gallery. I used paper piecing, added real buttons and 3D'd the pocket and frog. I also added half a double flower ribbon I recently bought.

His/Her Cards Day 4 Card 2
His/Her Card Class Day 4 Card 2
I wanted to try the card with the name tag and heart closing. I made the 4 layer letters and heart. I added white enamel to the heart and used copper acrylic paint dabber on the letters and border. I left enough room above my friends name so I could add a sentiment when I decide when/why I'll use this card. This was fun to make and a little different---which is always nice.

Since I have neither a father nor a mother I made this card so it could be sent to a friend. I used Word like Jennifer showed us in her video. Makes it fun and easy to print out font. It looks a lot better than the mailing labels I had been using (those showed somewhat). I added my silver dots with a silver Sharpie and also added a foam poke-a-dot star on the inside. I didn't have a star die so I traced a star and cut them half out using a craft blade.

I stamped the wheat in black and added an argyle border in purple. I add the sentiment and then mounted this on a purple mat. I thought it was busy enough so I didn't add the splashes of color I thought I would.

I used colored pencils and a colorless blender on the flowers and butterflies. I used Distress Inks and water for the splastters. Then I added the sentiment and mounted on a purple mat.

The right inks and colors make all the difference with this method. I really enjoyed trying this out. Like how the masculine feel is there. This class is helping me a great deal to see how to change up a few things to make a card masculine.
Next time I would use a secondary stamping of the bkgd stamp in order to have it not so bright. I would also stop the vellum at the edge of the kraft paper instead of going all the way out over the purple mat.

I tried the technique Jennifer did....not as easy as she makes it look. Definitely the type of ink you use makes a huge difference. I got ink on the side of the front by mistake so I cut it down and mounted it on the purple mat. I sprayed the vellum with glue and attached directly to the front.
