Blogger's Challenge - texture

0 comments



This week's blogger's challenge is about texture. I am cheating a bit this week -- I made this card long ago and never used it -- but I like it nonetheless! The textured bumpy part is the Cuttlebug Smoosh technique from the October 2007 issue of the TJ Newsletter. The Chick was colored using the Marker Watercoloring technique (June 2008 TJNL).

I have created a ton this week -- but I can't show you a whit of it! Most is for the June 2009 issue -- or my column in Rubber Stamp Madness. Sorry! You will see it eventually : )

All stamps: Stampin' Up!

Today's Triple Play Card (from the February 2009 issue of the Technique Junkie Newsletter) is a double play -- it is the third card in the series of three for the I Brake for Stamps Giveaway, and it is also my Blogger's Challenge Card for this week. The challenge this week was to make a card using Sage Green and Brown (neutrals optional). What a beautiful combination these colors are!
On the flap of this card, I chose to use the postoid ladies in a block, and highlight a few of them with my sage marker. I layered that on a sanded brown piece, and then cuttlebugged the flap and highlighted it with brown. I used a Fiskar's Scallop punch (yes, it has the holes already) on the white, and added a sage cord to cover the "seam." On the main part of the card, I used the Block Collage Technique (February issue of the TJ Newsletter).

Alas, I am sad. I had NO theme music running through my head for this card. I have no witty repartee. No bad puns. Sorry about that! Although, this card just may be my favorite of the trio. something about it in person is really special.

Remember to leave a comment on all three posts (today, yesterday and Wednesday) to have three chances to win this gorgeous rubber stamp sheet from I Brake for Stamps. And remember that it is not only on sale, but that you get another 10% off as a TJ member with this code: TJ10

Let me know which of the three is YOUR favorite! And check out the splendid artwork from the other Blogger Challenge players --click on the link on my sidebar for a complete list of the participants.
