Happy Weekend! Hope everyone is keeping warm and well.
This is my design team sample make for the new Outlawz Festive Friday challenge which began yesterday and ends 2/17. We are sponsored this month by All Dressed Up Stamps and we were provided this adorable image to work with called Kiss for Valentines.
Here is the list of challenge themes to choose from. I chose Spring Flowers because this card is for our daughter and son-in-love's 2nd wedding anniversary. Hard to believe that was 2 years ago, just a month before the lockdowns began:
The happy couple...still happy! |
I used Splitcoaststampers Sketch 744 for my design layout, but I resized it to 6x6" in PSE, as I thought it makes a great square sketch and I've already used it once as is.
The card base was cut from a 12x12" sheet of Bazzill and the mats are SU. The image was printed on Springhill Digital card and colored with Promarkers. I also used my white gel pen. The designer papers are from Basic Grey's 6x6 Mellow collection. The sentiment was computer-generated. I used a familiar quote and printed out on cream-colored paper from my stash. The 3 hearts below the image were punched.
Inside, I created a sentiment grouping using We Are 3 Digital Shop sentiments from 2 different sets. I created a grey frame and then printed on more of the cream colored paper.
On back, more Basic Grey Mellow papers and an Impression Obsession siggie stamped with Versafine Clair ink.
And a final view. I'm caught up with posting and will try to get caught up with commenting this weekend. Thanks so much for visiting and I hope your weekend is just what you wanted! XOXO

Crafty Animals Challenge #58: AG with an Animal -- Giraffes
Those giraffe's are adorable Aimeslee. I think you created such a clever and adorable anniversary card for your daughter and son-in-law. Thanks for sharing with us at Try It on Tuesday. And thanks also for your comment on my book post. It was really interesting to read, and not only learn something about you, but about Texas and the oil industry too. And I agree how companies wouldn't do much to save their employees in this day and age. What a world it has become. I hope you have a great week. hugs-Erika

You have a terrific skill at using those bright bold colourful pattens without them overpowering the main image, in fact the enhance it. I'm sure if I tried something like this it would be a complete mess. Thank you for adding this inspiring card to the River of Creativity. xx
ReplyDeleteLove the bold colours, great card! Thanks for joining Colour Crazy Challenges, good luck! Dawn DT
