Summer Card Camp 2--Week 1, Day 5

Alternate Color Combination
For this card I made a dove gray card, with a soft blue frame with a punch out of a daisy backed by yellow and flowers of soft pink, bright pink, and butter yellow.  A chipboard sentiment says "Friends make life so sweet. Pearl drop highlights on the petals and a gray satin ribbon complete the card.

Summer Card Camp 2--Week 1, Day 3

Today's lesson featured stitching on cards.  I stitched a gold foil panel on a dark rose card using a decorative shell stitch.  The word panel is composed of rose, gold, aqua, copper and light aqua strips with a "Wish" sticker attached.  A copper, rose and white chipboard medallion completes the card

Summer Card Camp 2--Week 1, Day 2


Todays lesson was on blending colors.  For the banner, I blended dark rose, turquoise, gold, and copper inks to make the background for the banner.  Pearl paint highlights the edge.  The words are die cut from dark rose with rose pearls for dots.  White silk flowers with pearl centers finish the banner which is attached to a turquoise card misted with gold.
