I didn't post anything in the end the other night because I just couldn't get my act together with cardmaking! I had loads of ideas, but they just didn't come together. I think I was just too tired. I decided that it would be better to lay everything out on the table and come back to it another day with a fresh mind. I have managed to put something together now though. I thought I would do Laura's Sketch #18 on 2 Sketches 4 You. I wanted to make a Valentine's Day card, but not in pink. I am going to make a few pink cards this year for Valentine's, but wanted to make one in blue and red for a change. It took some time to co-ordinate because the black looked too strong against the other colours, but finally I came up with this card.
Recipe:
Dies: Sizzix 'Circle #1', Ellison Thick Cuts 'Hearts, Double', Sizzlits 'Hearts #5'
Paper: Bo Bunny 'Sweetie Pie Sigh' & 'Flirty Birds', Pink Petticoat 'Tis the Season Victorian Cream Big Hearts', Bazzill Bling
Accessories: Ribbon from my stash, Mei Flower glitter stickers, Stampendous word stickers
Hope you like it. It would be great to hear your comments. ♥
Fabulous take on Laura's sketch, I adore the layered hearts :)
ReplyDeleteHi Ruby :)
ReplyDeleteLaura took a quick fun trip to Arizona so I am filling in for her - your card for her sketch is fabulous - that color combo that you used is one of Laura's favorites too!
Thanks for playing

ReplyDeleteRuby, great card! Fun! This is Sarah Rogers, you left a comment on my blog about my card for this challenge and asked about the tree on my card. I made the tree myself with some thin chipboard (cereal box thin, sometimes I actually use cereal boxes :) and then covered it with some cute green polka-dot paper I had, scrapps:) It was one of those ideas that kind of comes out of nowhere...and turned out pretty cute.
