Guest Designer Joan Osterhouse and A Card A Day in the Month of May
Friday, May 27, 2011
Ok so I have been asked to be the guest designer today. ( Oh what have I gotten myself into?) LOL I am not computer savy-in the least! But I can stamp a mean card-so hear goes... This first card is done with The Cup of Love stamp set and Thinking of you. Willoughby background paper, white caboodles paper and dcwc neutrals paper. I also used the crop a dile big bite, polo shimmer brads, Memento tuxedo black ink and of course copic markers from set F. The flad border was made by taking 3/4 " squares and cutting them in half. Instead of round-like the sketch- I decided to go with square for this card. I also cut off the handle and part of the cup to make it fit in the size given.
For this last card I used a lot of things: Stamps: Great Greetings, Lucy and sketched scrolls. Cardstock: Caboodles white and DCWC Jewel. Memento Tuxedo black ink and Versamagic cloud white. Copic markers set D and set A. Souffle gelly white pen, white mini brads, Nestabilities Calssic Scallop Cirles lrg and Impressabilities Flowers. 1" cirlce punch and white ribbon.
So there you go-I hope you were able to get a new idea. Be VERY surprised if I EVER do ANYTHING like this again! HAHAHA Interesting-very interesting. Blessings, Joan Osterhouse
