June 21st 2011

On the 21st I made a card with the idea of cavity in mind. The black is simple felt from any craft store that I cut hols in and place a mesh fabric over the holes. The backing pieces are also felt and then I place beads in between and hand sewed around the edges. I especially like shaking this little card because the beads move about in their own little pockets.

I had a short amount of time a can of spray paint and some extra black wire left over from an earlier craft project. I made this card by placing a piece of fern and trumpet vine on my cards surface and lightly spraying with black spray paint. I added the wires because they reminded me of how the vines send out these fun curly shoots.

Using post it notes, and odd piece of colored papers I made this structural card. I also incorporated some old garage sale stickers (the bottom two yellow dots) Today was all about play.

I am so in love with cut paper it makes me sick. This piece was traced out first and then cut with a very pointy pair of scissors. Pintrest is my new favorite muse and I plan to take my cutting skills to new heights with my own version of cut canvases seen here http://ninered.blogspot.com/2012/03/triple-layer-cut-canvas.html

I wanted to play with pen on this day. Black and blue ink on card stock. When it was finished I placed contact paper over to seal it. Not my favorite card, but not every day can be a gem and you learn from what dosen't work more than from what does.

As long as I was making cute cards I thought I would go for broke. This card is made of felt buttons and adhesive crystals. Every girl needs a little sparkle time.

I had spent a few days aspiring to make serious, artful, and experimental technique cards when this one just kind of happened. Some times you just have to give in to your inner cute :-). The little squares are made from shrinky dinks. Its days like this that I want to scrapbook and make people cute nonsensical cards.
