We've been busy this week and I haven't had much time for creative play. Today it was supposed to rain on and off most of the day-what perfect conditions for card making! Well, it hasn't rained a drop yet, but I still managed a couple cards for a few challenges.
This little card covers 2 challenges. {Loves me a two-fer!} I made it specifically for Party Time Tuesday's Anything Goes challenge. I missed last week's and almost forgot about it again this week! This card is 2.5x5" big. It was the trimmed off piece of a bigger card and I couldn't see it going to waste.
This also fits the bill for Wendy's "Camp-Out" challenge over at My Sketch World. My second card is for Suzann's Manufacturer's Challenge. I used some Pink Paisley and Basic Grey from her list.
I have seen these zipper flowers around for the last 6 months or so and read a few tutorials and just played with it until I got it just the way I wanted. Here is a link to a tutorial though, if your are interested.
Happy Sunday, friends and thanks for stopping by!
Beautiful cards, Jan. I love all the embellishing! Thanks for playing along with my Party Time Tuesdays challenge!
ReplyDeleteYou are the card Queen Jan! I love them! Love the color combo on the first one and the bling flourish. The zipper flower on the second is too cool!
ReplyDeleteTotally awesome cards, Jan! Did you put a rub-on on the ribbon in the green card? It looks cool!
ReplyDeleteLove these cards Jan!! That zipper bow is so beautiful. I'll have to check out that tutorial. I love that you use up your scraps too. I'm in the midst of organizing them at the moment. ARgh, what a mess! LOL
