Hi all,
I’m now on day 4 of Online card classes and today’s card is one of my all time favs! Today’s challenge was to create a card that dominates in negative space, but still makes a statement. I absolutely loved Kristina Werner‘s take on the challenge – this girl gives me so much inspiration. Anyhow, I used her concept to create today’s card.
Here it is!
Supplies:
Card Base: Textured Black American Crafts cardstock
Stamps: Inkadinkado Cafe Wood Stamp Set
Ink: Versamark clear
Embossing Powder: Linen White by Inkadinkado
Embossing folder: Distressed Rays by Tim Holtz and Sizzex
White Pen: Uniball Signo Broad Gel Pen

Hi all,
We so we’ve officially completed a week of online card class and I think it was jam packed with awesomeness. Today’s focus was on stretching stamps in a way that is a little different then it’s initial use or changing the center focus of the stamp. I decided to look into my Christmas stamps and see if any of them could double for something else. The wreath here is from my Christmas Sentiments stamp set, but with a change in color – it looks very bright.
Here is my card:

Supplies:
Card Base: Neenah Environmental Cardstock Desert Storm
Paper: Hero Hues Notecard, Neenah and Cream Vellum by Slice
Inks: Colorbox- Chestnut Roan, American Crafts Stamp markers
Embossing: Dry embossing – Cuttlebug folder, wreath embossing – Zing Leaf

Hi all,
We are on to week 2 of online card class and I am anxiously waiting to see what is in store for the week. Today’s cards were so creative and inspiring in theme. For homework the designers asked that we use one of their outlined sketches to create our card. I used Kristina Werner’s sketch and came up with my design.
Here’s my contribution for day 6

Paper: American Crafts Textured Card stock
Embossing: Inkadinkado Linen White
