This is my card for this week's Featured Stamper challenge. This week's Featured Stamper is Darlene(akronstamperdpk). She has a fun filled gallery, and I chose this card to CASE. For my card, I used the new My Favorite Things set, Plant a Seed of Love. I started by stamping my image on an MFT Perfect Panel, then I colored it in with my Copics.
The cardstock colors are Rich Razzleberry, Kiwi Kiss, and Creamy Carmel. I used some retired SU DSP, but the name escapes me...sorry. My ribbon is from SU, as well as the brads, but the spiral clips are not. I messed up my sentiment, so I punched one out with my scalloped oval and put it over it...yep, I hate it but it is what it is!!
So it isn't the worst thing I have ever made, but it CERTAINLY is not what I expected and DOES NOT do this gorgeous new image justice!!
Before I went into my migraine funk, I made a card for last week's Featured Stamper challenge. Last week's Featured Stamper was my fellow Trend Setter, Joanne(jojot).
I chose this card of hers. For my bee's, I used the Whipper Snapper set, Little Critters. The DP is from the Imaginisce Twitterpated line. I used my SU Oval punch for the main images which were colored with my Copics. The border punch is from SU, and I added some silver brads along the edge. The colors are So Saffron, Certainly Celery and Real Red. The ribbons are from SU, and the spiral clips are from Joanne's. I added some glitter with my Sakura Stardust glitter pen to their wings.
Well, that is it for me now!! Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!
Ohhhh, been there done that....messed up a sentiment and then had to cover it up. LOL, you'd better post it after spending three hours on it!! :)
ReplyDeleteLove Love LOVE that bee card!! Great colors and I love the bees paired with that eyelet punch.
Your cards are both pretty. Don't be so hard on yourself. :) It's pretty. :)
ReplyDeletethey are both fabulous...but, of course, I have a place in my heart for the bee card (wink).....thanks so much for playing....I am honored
ReplyDeleteWell, I personally think they are both gorgeous! I'm not sure what you're talking about! :)
ReplyDeleteI love the sneak peek here!! You're so lucky to get to play with them! Gorge-a-mous!
ReplyDeleteThe first cards is really pretty, I don't know what you're talking about! :-) And I loooove the 2nd card, sooo cute!
ReplyDeleteThey're both beautiful, Jessie! :)
ReplyDeletei have an idea....i was looking at your other cards, and i have an idea. i think the two bows are competing with each other. i would take the left bow off, and perhaps leave the clip in place. look at the bee card...one bow and metal brads. maybe there is a formula? one bow (large single item) as a focal point, and other (small) embellishments for balance. how you place the items will show your personal style.
ReplyDeleteWell, it's a stunner in my book. You know I love embellies :D Miss you...is it the 18th yet?
ReplyDeletehmmm, not sure why you're not happy with the first card - I think it's great!!! I hate when I work so hard on a card and assemble ALL my layers and mess up the sentiment at the last minute! ugh but seriously, it's great! I love the bees card, it's SO cheerful! hope you're better now (no more migraine)
ReplyDeleteOh I know how you feel....I spent an entire night at Jodi's house coloring an image only to come home and throw it away and start over again (twice) but I think your two cards are amazing. Like all of your work!!!!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your cased card. It's beautiful! And the bee card is so cute, too! Seriously, I wish my "good" cards looked half as good as the ones you "aren't happy with!"
ReplyDeleteGorgeous!
ReplyDeleteSo great - those bees are awesome! :)
