Hi Crafty Friends,
I've been MIA for more than a week which is very unlike me, I do love my blogging. I have been creating, some cards for magazines so I can't post them but here's a few I've created just for fun, hope you like them.
This first one is a very summery card using scraps of yellow, pink and blue cardstock. I used double sided tape all over a square of white cardstock then added strips of the colour cardstocks to it and then turned it over to trim off all the overhang. I used to think crafters worked out the sizes etc that they needed for strips like this but it's so much easier to use a really long strip, tape/glue it down and then cut the extra bits off. I also created a rectangle and did the same. The strip at the bottom was left overs - I just mounted it onto yellow cardstock too for another element. I inked around everything in pink ink. This card looks so much lovelier in real life. You can find the image at Crafts and Me (artist Hannah Lynn).
