Thinking of you today

By
So we are on a roll again. Here is another challenge card. This time we had to learn what ombre is and I found that I really like this technique.

Here is my card...
Did you know a card with a cut out is called an Aperture Card? This one has a fancy cut out. You can buy these at the craft store.

Here is the inside
 My Tip: Start light to dark. You can always add more color not take it off.

recipe:
TH Distress ink- Feastive Berries, Worn Lipstick, Spun Sugar
Prismacolor pencils- all the yellow and light orange I had
A Day for Daisy- Freebie digital image
All Sentiments were from a site that closed down
David Tutera- Card Base
Wink of Stella- Clear gloss for frame and wings
Scrap ribbons/ baker's twine
Momento Tuxedo Black ink
Yellow American Craft card stock

So the challenges that inspired this card are:

    Your card is gorgeous with the red/pink ombre outside, and the yellow/organ on the aperture. The fairy is soooo sweet! Thank you for sharing your ombre-inspire gem in the Inkspirational gallery!

Building Block Graduation Card

By
Hello, everyone! Melissa here on to share a "building block" style card with you. I made this one graduation themed, since there are a ton of graduations going on right now. Hope you enjoy this card, and are inspired to try it out yourself. Here is the tutorial I followed from Split Coast Stampers. To make it easier, I will give you all the measurements, here. It looks harder than it is, I promise. Start with a piece of cardstock in your desired color that is 5.5 x 10.5.

On the back side of the "valley" fold, take a ruler and pencil and mark these measurements: 3/8 1 3/8 1 5/8 2 5/8 2 7/8 3 7/8 ...
