So Happy for You

By Cards

Hey all,

I’m in the process of creating all new cards for my etsy shop, private sales and consignment. Needless to say it is quite the task so I don’t plan on having much in store until Sept 7th.

In the meantime I’ll post a few peeks at cards I’ve creating in the brainstorming process of items I will put into the store.

Today, I wanted to play around with some neutral colors that could be used for multiple occassions. This card features striped and geometric patterns mixed with a very floral. Typically I wouldn’t think to mix the two patterns together, but I think in such a small amount it’s quite pretty.

Also, I’m trying to use up some of the paper flower embellishments I have in stock. Here’s one way to to use them – as centers to illustrated flowers!Happy-Floral-Card

Thanks for stopping by and I’ll be back with an all new card real soon!

Fall Themed Notecards

By Cards, Planner Stationary & Accessories

Hi All,

For today’s project I wanted to create a card that could be used as a name card or place card holder at thanksgiving dinner. I like these because they are small enough to not be entirely ‘in the way’ of everything else that is on a table, but they are definitely bold enough to make an impression. I have 2 different color schemes that I created, and I really can’t choose which one is my favorite. P.S. there’s something about burlap that I love!

Even if these aren’t used during thanksgiving, they make great tags to attach to a gift.

Week One Summer Card Camp Series – Color Challenge

By Cards

Hi all!

Today I’m excited to share a project I made in conjunction with summer card camp over at onlinecardclasses. It’s only been a few days since the camp started but I have already learned so much! I love about the technicalities to creating cards and other craft projects. In class, each week students are given a color challenge in which he or she has to use the color scheme provided to create a project.

Here is the scheme for week 1.

Here is the card I came up with using the themes and techniques used by the teachers themselves. I enjoyed learning about layering shapes and designs and how to group images. So interesting!

Thanks for learning with me and stopping by!

Hi all,

I am on to day 5 of online card class. Today’s theme is anniversary cards. I thought the cards presented in class today were abosutely adorable, but I wanted to try something a little different. I created a card sketch that I wanted to use on both cards. I thought the results were fantastic and was a bit surprised at how quickly the card came together once I sketched out my design scheme.
