Once a month I attend a SU! workshop, make a few cards and then go out to lunch with a friend. Last month was a different set up and we chose stamps and then colored them. I also gave a brief talk about Copic markers. A month has gone by and I never finished any of the five cards and the next workshop is Monday, so I have been finishing all the cards. I always do better creating cards on my own, and when in a card making class I never do well. Having the chance to bring these colored images home I made some cards that has my touch.
The image was colored with Copics at the last workshop and this week I die cut it as well as the blue paper, which was then embossed. I added this neat sentiment from Paper Onion and I love the style of the font. Glossy Accents was applied to the flowers.
Stamp - SU! (name I don't know), Paper Onion sentiment
Paper - SU! Whisper White, Tempting Turquoise (one of my favorites)
Ink - Memento, Copics
Embossing Folder - Provo Craft "Daisies"
This week in Southern California has been miserable with heat and humidity, the temps are 5 to 15 degrees higher than usual and yesterday it was in the low 90's and we leave close to the beach. All I do is sit with the fan blowing on me and make cards. We are trying hard not to use the AC because of the fear of a brown-out (no electricity) and I keep the living room closed up which means there is not good light to take a photo. So below is my set up for this photo. The fan is on the right. Thank goodness for the Ott light.
I don't usually submit one card to more than one challenge but I am giving it a try today.
Love these flowers and the pretty embossed frame! Stay cool!
