Cardmaker's High
I loved this week on The Office when Phyllis shared that "party planning is like a high ... a runner's high"' ... I honestly think I'm on a cardmaker's high this afternoon. After so much time away from my studio the past few weeks, I can't seem to get enough of my paper and ink.
I did this first card for Beate's sketch challenge, but after I finished it, I realized I didn't overlap the pieces correctly. Since I still had everything out on my work table, and I am working on gift sets, I went back to the drawing board and did another one.
I used ivory cardstock and DP from Provo Craft Slab XI Cadezna. All stamps are from Hero Arts - Treasure the Moments, Take Good Care Greetings & Long Bracket Messages. I inked the stamps with ColorBox Chalk Dark Moss and used a Plum Marvy marker to highlight the words.
These both made me say, "WOW!" out loud to the computer :)
I especially like the first one!
