Red, Blue and Yellow Colour Challenge
The last week of a month is usually Challenge week at Maymay Made It and this weekโs challenge was to only use the colours Red, Blue and Yellow. This obviously meant that I couldnโt use even White card stock or Black ink, and since I use them in most of my cardsย (almost all ๐),ย it was quite a challenge to come up with a card idea. But, I must say it was fun and I loved every bit of it. Challenges compel me to think out of the box and come up with ideas I probably wouldnโt attempt making otherwise, which is why I always look forward to such challenges. I have been wanting to make a quilled card but I keep procrastinating and this time I decided to add another challenge for me by making a quilled card. Along with the quilling essentials, I used the Jar of Fun and From All of us stamp set by Maymay Made it.
I used a light blue cardstock for the background and dabbed Salty Ocean Distress Ink on it using a Nuvo Blending brush to give it a texture.
After that, I stamped the Mason Jar on aย light blue vellum using VersaMark Ink, sprinkled Blue Tang embossing powder by Wow, dusted off the excess and then heat set it with my heat tool. I also stamped and embossed the tag and sentiment on a light blue cardstock using the same process. I then fussy cut the images and stuck the tag on the jar. Since I wanted the jar to have a 3D look, I stuck it only in the middle behind the tag. The tag I used is from the same set as the Mason Jar, but the sentiment is from the Maymay Made it From All Of Us stamp set.
For the flowers and fillers, I used different shades of red, yellow and blue quilling strips. I wanted to make different flowers, and so I learned quite a lot of techniques while doing this challenge. I decided to add Nuvo drops for the centres of these flowers and so I put them on my Ranger non-stick craft mat and let them dry overnight. Once they were dry, I removed them from the mat and stuck them on the flowers using Art Glitter Glue. Then, I stuck all the quilled pieces on the card stock. I also stuck a few Sea Breeze Jewel Drops all around the card because I like how they dry translucent and appear like droplets of water.
As a final step, I stuck the card stock to a dark blue card base and I completed my challenge.โค๏ธ
