Here we are...the last day of the month and that's posting day for some Catch Up Cards.
A few friends and I decided that we would make a point to complete a card or two from challenges, classes, kits, etc. that we are behind on. Voila! The Catch Up Club was formed.
Here are 2 cards from last October's Crop & Create Delivered virtual card making event.
She had us cut strips of the colored stock and glue them to a piece of scrap paper. Then we cut this and used it to create the backgrounds. I thought it was a great idea!
The stamp and die set is called "Sincere Sentiments Best of Friends" and I really like it.
The sentiments and flowers stamp nicely and the dies are easy to use. This is a versatile set that will see a lot of use by me.
I also enjoyed learning the "color blocking" technique with the strips of card stock. A nice and economical way to use paper to liven up your cards.
2022 is drawing to a close today. I wish all of you many blessings in 2023. Thanks for stopping by and be sure to visit the blogs of my Catch Up friends:
Sweet Cards Darlene--love the fun colors! I still need to do those!
ReplyDeleteDarlene, I love the colorful strips. They add so much to the design of the card. I haven't done that class yet, but you've made me look forward to doing it.
ReplyDeletelove the bold colours in your paper stripes Darlene - fabulous cards as a result too. That must have been a great class to take.
