Here’s what I came up with for the Operation Write Home Labor Day Virtual Card Making Party second challenge.  This time we had a recipe to follow:  1 image, 2 patterned papers, and a 3-word sentiment.  I’ll concede that my red paper doesn’t have much of a pattern to it, but it’s from an old Basic Grey paper pad and it is definitely not a true solid.  The papers I chose go along with the current Dynamic Duos color challenge.  The girl’s heart and dress are both paper pieced. The sentiment was created using Microsoft Word. The layout is Freshly Made Sketch #50, but the deadline for linking it to that challenge has already passed.

 

Supplies:
Digital Image: Pure Innocence 22 (Heather Ellis)
Cardstock: Lucky Limeade (Stampin’ Up); Basics White (Papertrey Ink); designer papers from Gypsy 6″ x 6″ paper pad (Basic Grey)
Ink: printer ink; Poppy Parade (SU)
Other: markers (Copic); corner rounder punch (SU); sponge

Labor Day VCMP challenge #1

Hello!  Operation Write Home held a Virtual Card Making Party over the Labor Day weekend, with a bunch of fun challenges to spark cardmaking creativity.  OWH is also teaming up with Lawn Fawn this week for even more card making fun and inspiration!

I was busy with my family over the weekend, but have been playing catch up on the challenges this week.  Here’s what I came up with for the first challenge, to create a card with an uplifting sentiment.  I decided to put a kid-friendly spin on this and make a card that could be sent to a child.  I used the OWH/Lawn Fawn bonus sketch for the layout. The sentiment is from the same set as the drum image, but I added the exclamation point from an alphabet set.

 

Supplies:
Stamps: Pa-Rum-Pum-Pum-Pum, Jessie’s ABCs (Lawn Fawn)
Cardstock: Pumpkin Pie (Stampin’ Up); Pure Luxury Ivory (Gina K. Designs); Bright Side petite papers (Lawn Fawn)
Ink: Tuxedo Black (Memento)
Other: markers (Copic); standard circle Nestabilities die (Spellbinders)
