I did NOT
take the Thursdays evening Class off {unlike last week}, as Jen and I had a “Card
Off” challenge, that lasted till 1am, + we went through a whole packet of Chewy
Caramel Tim Tams!!!
After
many giggles, we were down to the last one, which Jen kindly offered to me,
however when I slid the packet open there were 2 left, so we had one each …
ahhhh Bliss!!!
Project 1 “Floral
Card”
We both
started with the same sheet of cardstock “Coastal Cabana” and “Pool Party”, and
the stamp set “Secret Garden” and went for it!
My card
also featured the {embossed in Clear Embossing Powder} “En Francais” stamp set,
and “Happy Watercolor” {embossed in White Embossing Powder}.
We did
some hand painting with the Aqua Painters in Tempting Turquoise and Coastal
Cabana + tried out Jen’s new H2Os.
I choose
to add a sentiment {in Gold Embossing Powder} from the “Chalk Talk” stamp set,
with the wording “I am so grateful there is you in the world”, and on in the inside
of the card, also in Gold Embossing Powder are the words “Thanks so much” from
the “Wetlands” stamp set.
My card
is finished off with the gorgeous "Watercolour Wonder" Washi Tape.
Jen’s
card had a beautiful background, stamped and embossed {in Clear} with the “Secret Garden” stamp set, then
hand-coloured using the H2Os
The finished touch
on both cards, were the abundance of gorgeous Pearls.
Project 2“Nautical
Card”
Our card-base{s}
was Naturals White, and I used the “Circle Card Thinlits” dies, and stamped
with the “Hardwood” stamp. The lining of the card is from the “Fan Fair”
Designer Series Paper {My Digital Studio download}.
The flip-circle is
stamped with the Ledger from ”The Open Sea” stamp set in Sahara Sand, then the
Ship is stamped in Soft Suede, and the water is added with Aqua Painters and Pool
Party.
The Compass is stamped
in Night Of Navy and an Antique Brad is used.
Twine is then tied
around the card and secured with a reef knot.
I stamped the Anchor
{with Night of Navy on Naturals White} and fussy-cut, and tied with twine, which
is attached to the twine wrapped around the card, and tied with a slip knot. The
anchor rope can then move up and down the line!
The inside of the
card is stamped in “Night Of Navy” {♥♥♥ this is my first time using the
Night Of Navy Classic Stampin’ Pad and I am in ♥ with this colour} with the “Wetlands”
stamp. The sentiment “Birthday Greetings” is also from the “Wetlands” stamp
set.
Jen’s card has the
Ledger {from “The Open Sea”} stamped in the background of the sentiment, which
is from the “Wetlands” stamp set and a Compass is then over-stamped in Night Of
Navy.
The ship is fussy
cut, and is adhered with Dimensionals.
Yet again, even
thought with both stated with the same themes and crafty items available, our
projects both look stunning, yet completely different!
