I’ve been wanting participate in a creating challenge recently, and I finally took some extra time and did it!! J What fun …to follow a sketch & complete the design however you feel led! Since it’s been a while since I’ve done a challenge, this time I pretty much stuck to the sketch that was provided.
When I saw this sketch, from Mojo Monday this week, I knew I was going to use this Close To My Heart’s EXCLUSIVE paper pack – Taste of Summer – as my starting point!
The Taste of Summer paper pack can ONLY be purchased from your CTMH consultant (click here if you don’t have a consultant J) during May 2015!!
It’s ONLY $8.95 for the 12 pack of designer papers! The bright & bold colors in the set just make you want to create!!
So after deciding to use those papers…this is the card I created…J
What fun I had, creating this card….it just makes me think of summertime!! Summer will be here before we know it!
For my card, I chose to use the solid designs vs. the fruit designs of this paper. The purple, yellow & green colors were calling my name J…and those are the colors I ended up using.
I used the stamp set that comes from our Blossom Cardmaking Kit. I love the variety of images in this set!! The popsicle, stars, flowers…and words - Oh fun!!! (CLICK HERE to see details on this kit & my upcoming card class!)
I was inspired when I saw a card created by my friend, Jaime Llewellyn, where she used liquid glass on her popsicle! I LOVED the effect, so I had to recreate that on this card. Can you see the shimmer & dimension the Liquid Glass adds to this card?
I hope you enjoyed this card, and maybe you would like to create one of your own!
If so, here is a list of items I used to create this fun card.
