Good afternoon. Another week has flown by. It seems like the older I get the quicker time flies. I got to do a little stamping and card making this weekend, and that's always a good thing. My brother's birthday is coming up, and I wanted to do something for that. And I have a wedding card to make, for my husband's nephew by marriage, but I'll save that for another post, since I have some time to get that done. My brother has had a lot of medical problems, and I wanted to make something to remind him to count his blessings for what he has and can do, and not dwell on what he doesn't have (or can't do). I have a little stamp by Hero Arts that I think will do nicely. And so we will have a Pick 3 Challenge.
Here are the things to pick from:
- Animal
- Rivets
- Birthday
- Lace
- Patterned Paper
- Punch
Just pick 3 of the above items and share your creation via a link in the comment section. Here is my creation:
I stamped the sheep (Hero Arts) onto white cardstock and colored using Copic markers. I used a nestability die to cut out the image. Based on the colors I used to color the image, I chose my patterned paper for the background.
I used the same nestability die in 2 larger sizes, once to make a mat for the image with the background paper, and a larger one on white cardstock for the final mat.
On the inside I stamped "Happy Birthday" and matted it with the same patterned paper that I used for the background.
A very simple card that looks nice.
I hope you have a wonderful week, and I'll look forward to seeing your creations, and also seeing you back here next week for the wedding card. Until then, do something crafty!
