Away + Postmarks and Love Life
Happy Monday, all! Here are a couple of cards that I made for challenges over at Moxie Fab World and Embellish Blog.
My first card is for the Postage Challenge in the Moxie Fab World. I am also submitting it to this year's Gallery Idol contest. Gotta give it a try, right? =)
I first stamped Background Basics: Postmarks on the Rustic White card base with Classic Kraft ink then added sentiment from Up, Up & Away set and hot air balloon from Away set with Smokey Shadow ink. Some baker's twine is then wrapped around the card and I colored a pearl black and added it on top of the bow. I was hoping that the black pearl would help carrying the flow of the eye from the hot air balloon to the sentiment, or at least that was what I thought I was doing. =)
My second card is for the Bicycles Color Trends Challenge over at Embellish Blog.
Everything is on Rustic White cardstock once again. The bike stamp is from Unity Stamp's Love Life set. I used some decorative tapes from My Mind's Eye to help me with the colors. There are bits of mustard yellow and blue from the tape just under the stamped bicycle image, just incase you can't see it clearly.
That's all for now. Have a beautiful day, my friends! =)
Thanks for stopping by!
