AAA Cards Challenge #149 – Up to One Third
Hello there! Welcome to my blog. I am absolutely thrilled to share my first post as a Guest Designer at the AAA Card Challenge Blog. It is a dream come true, and I am very grateful to the team for inviting me to Guest Design for them.
If you enjoy making clean and simple cards, I encourage you to participate in these challenges. They are always so unique and fun. The theme for challenge #149 is – Up to One Third + Optional twist an inlaid die.
I started by placing the stamps from the Garden Grow Stamp Set, that I wanted in the foreground, on my Misti and stamped it on an A2 cardstock using Memento Black Ink. I also stamped on them on eclipse masking sheet, fussy cut them and masked the images on the card panel. Then I stamped the potted plants in the background. After that, I unmasked the images and used my Copic Markers to colour them.
Below are the colours I used:
Purple Flowers – V17, V15, V12, Y04
Pink Flowers – R22, R32, R35
Leaves (1) – G28, G17
Leaves (2) – YG25, YG23, YG13
Pot (1) – E19, E15, E13, E11
Pot (2) – YG99, YG63, YG67
Pot (3) – E59, E57, E18, E15, E13
Pot (4) – E15, E13, E11
Tag – C5, C3
Grass – G17, G14, YG13, YG11
After that, I used my Copic Multiliner pen to outline all the images.
To include the optional twist of an inlaid die in my card, I placed the thanks die from the Signature Words Die Set on this card panel and ran it through my die cutting machine. I also die cut it one more time from a piece of black cardstock. Since I only wanted the words “for being my inspiration”, I masked the words thank you using a post it. Then I stamped the sentiment from Crafty Friends Stamp Set using Obsidian Pigment Ink. After that, I stuck this card panel on an A2 card base and then applied art glitter glue in the negative space and placed the word thanks in it.
I hope you give this challenge a try, and I cannot wait to see all your amazing projects on the blog.
