Happy Sunday crafty friends. I hope you've had a good weekend and hopefully did a bit of crafting. I went for my 2nd vaccine today (I'm very lucky to work for the NHS) and don't feel too bad at the moment but a lot of my co-workers have felt more unwell after the 2nd one than the first so I'm keeping everything crossed that I don't suffer too badly with this one. It's worth it though as hopefully this will be our way out of this pandemic/lockdown.
I'm here to share my first ever slimline card (I know behind the times as always lol!). I made this card recently for one of my lovely DT friends and I have to say I really loved the size and how it turned out. I think I may make a mini slimline soon as they look a cute size too.
When I made this card I was following an MFT sketch challenge but ran out of time to enter it - oops!
I began by stamping the 3 fun images and coloured them with my promarkers; I also added some ink blending behind the images for some contrast. I then cut 3 circles from another piece of card and layered it over top the images with foam tape. The sentiment was white heat embossed and cut with my trimmer. I added some splatters and a few sequins and my card was done.
I am entering my card into the following challenges:
Cute Card Thursday - slimline
SSS Wednesday challenge - fave technique (die cutting, colouring with alcohol markers)
Inkspirational challenge - word prompt: tower
MFT slimline challenge - birthday wishes
I hope you have a wonderful week. Stay safe and take care.
Hugs,
