Mr Random may not find me, but I had a great time making 6 cards I really like for MFT Camp Create. Today are my last 2 entries. First is the card for Day 4: Monochromatic Magic. I think it also qualifies for Day 3: Background Bonanza.
My Zigs have been neglected lately, so decided to use 3 greens with the MFT Geometric Grid Background which I white embossed. Finally used some of the MFT Wild Greenery dies & colored the cuts with the same pens, but used a lot less water. Couldn't resist adding some Wink of Stella, but still think this could go to a guy or a gal.
I only applied glue to the ends tucked under the sentiment banner made with a white embossed stamp from MFT Totally Happy. Finished off with PPP clear dots & mounted the panel to a white linen card. I'm also entering CropStop, Stamping Sensations & Word Art Wednesday.
Last card for camp is my hubby's anniversary card--2 weeks early, for a change--haha! It's another entry for Day 3: Background Bonanza, but this time I used the MFT Graduated Hearts stencil with Heidi Swapp silver Art Screen Ink which has a lovely shimmer.
The background for the hearts was made by smooshing DI wilted violet & blueprint sketch on watercolor paper. I used the same 2 inks & my Mini MISTI for the sentiment stamp from an unlabeled MFT stamp set.
I fussy cut the image & added a little heart gem I colored with a black Copic & covered with a thin layer of black Nuvo drops. Think hubby will like this one--he's not much into red, but he does like blue & purple. I'm also entering CropStop. Thanks so much for taking time to stop by.
Wow, fabulous cards, Greta! Jo x
ReplyDeleteYour first card is so fresh and pretty. Love the way you've only attached the leaves at the bottom to give movement and dimension. The shimmer and the heart stencil looks great with the smooshed background on the second card. you must be delighted to have completed all the cards for the camp create and well done you...so much hard work and creativity, thank you for sharing x
ReplyDeleteAwesome duo! the first brings a bit of coolness to the dog days of August and your anniversary card is amazing! You made a winner no matter if Mr. Random thinks so or not!
ReplyDeleteWell done my friend, so glad you got through camp. Your first card is awesome and I love your sparklie hearts on the second.
ReplyDeleteJust love what you did with the geometric background, Greta! And of course I love all the hearts on card 2!!
ReplyDeleteFun cards Greta, you rocked camp the year!!
ReplyDeletelove love how you created the background on the first one and the second is fantastic too - would be great in pinks and red for valentine's day!
ReplyDeleteI love these creative ways of using stencils.
ReplyDeleteI agree Greta, the first card would work for male or female, it's subtle yet really makes a statement. Your second card is such a contract and uses my favourite DI which I love combining with green a tad too often.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks for sharing with us at Stamping Sensations challenge.
