Today's post is special. There is a new site opening called Cards in Envy and it is all about making cards that fit into an envelope using a regular postage stamp. The first challenge is a sketch, which is for the first Monday of the month. The second challenge is on the third Monday of the month will be a "Themed Challenge" (I can't show that to you for about 2 weeks) You ask me why I know so much about this site I was selected as a DT, you will see my silly picture talking about the DT's.
Come on over and play at Cards in Envy, just click on what is underlined in blue and it will take you there.
Come over and take the challenge.
Here is the sketch for Challenge 1:
and here is my take on it:
This was a lot of fun creating this card from the sketch using My Minds Eye, the embellishments, some gray ribbon, cardstock and Thank You from SRM.
Karen your card is lovely, the colors and floral paper are beautiful and I love the wonderful assortment of brads you have used, particularly your flower centre. I am looking forward to working with you on the DT for Cards In Envy and seeing more of your lovely work. xx
