Online Summer Card Camp Week 4

It's the last week of Summer Card  Camp and here is the color palette that they have chosen for us this week:

And here is my card with the color combo:

Just a quick post to share the card, got to go take the kids to VBS! Thanks for stopping by!

Online Card Class Week 2, card 2



 And here is my second card for the week:

I made this card with scraps from my July kit, my June kit, and my scrap bin, a border and Anna Griffin sentiment sticker from my July kit, a digistamp from Lindsay's Stamp Stuff  Strawberries and Watermelons set that I colored with Copics and punched the corners with an EK Success punch.

Now...we are back from vacation and I am ready for next week!

Online Card Class Week 2

Here is my first card for this weeks challenge-

I used kraft cardstock and red patterned GCD Studios paper from my July kit, along with light green ribbon and a Doodlebug border strip, also from my kits. The image and sentiment are from Lindsay's Stamp Stuff digistamp sets, Funky Forest ans All Around Sentiments ( I colored them with Copics and chalk), and the two different pieces of orange cardstock are from my scraps. Thank you for looking, I will post another card for this week in just a little bit.

Online Card Class (Tuesday's Technique)

The fabulous Jennifer Mcguire made a window card for our class today, using this week's color combo, and it looked really cool, so I made my own version  with my nesties, a white card base, some shabby seam binding, a scrap of light sky blue card stock, and added 3 flowers from  a previous CKCB kit. They were originally white, but I sprayed them with homemade shimmer mist in the colors of this week's challenge drew stems with my Sakura opaque green pen, dried them with my embossing tool, then stamped the "Smile" sentiment on the card. It's a very clean and simple card, but I really like it-I am digging these classes so far!

Week 1 Online Card Class Color Combo (Monday's challenge)

I have not really been making many cards for the past few months (just really focusing on scrapbooking instead). Since scrapbooking is my first crafty love, I was ok with that, but there is just one problem!! My card stash has been dwindling. And I really do love to make cards, so I was ecstatic when I won a spot in Jennifer McGuire and Kristina Werner's Online Summer Card Camp through Betsy Veldman's blog-all of these ladies are so super talented and inspiring! I am so excited to try new techniques, color combos, and more, and fill my card stash back up, hopefully with some beautiful cards!!
Here is the Color Combo we were given for this week:

Here is my card for the challenge:

The inside is stamped with the sentiment, "Have a Fabulous Birthday". This color combo is not at all what I would have normally used, but I love how it turned out! Most of the supplies used came from the kit I put together for myself for June (see details HERE ). I started with a white card base, added a scrap of blue patterned paperstock from Making Memories, a leftover scrap of DCWV Mango Frost glitter paper, along with purple and hot pink cardstock strips which I punched with my Martha Stewart scalloped border punch, and layered (kind of reminds me of ruffles). Then I tied a piece of hand-dyed shabby seam binding (purple) around the top of the colored papers, and made a double bow, stamped and fussy cut some stems  and leaves with the Basic Grey stamp set from my June kit and Martha Stewart pigment ink, added tiny pearls to the flower centers, and then I took a hot pink Prima rose and added it to the top of the bow and leaves. And just like that, I have used up some scraps and made a birthday card(which I never have enough of) for my stash!
