Cardapalooza!

October 4, 2008 by admin 3 Comments

Today is the day to make, send, and blog-hop for card inspiration.  I love cards.  I love their small size.  I love that papers that seem too busy for scrapbooking translate so well to cardmaking.  I love layering and adding all the little details.  And boy, do I love coloring!  So without further ado (although I adore ado), here are some cards.  Enjoy!

Photo Card

The pink 'tutu' is from a Spellbinders die, cut on pink pearlescent paper.  I love how the embossing detail shows up on this kind of paper.

The photo is actually two of the same photo, with her arms, hands and flowers placed with dimensional tape over the die cut tutu.  Ahhh.  Paper dolls as a grownup.  Who knew?

And then that little lacey trim on the side — another fun girly touch.

Coloring Card

Copic Sketch markers were used to color this trio of bathing beauties from Rubbernecker Stamps.

Coloring images is a breeze, and the results are amazing using these markers!

And they work on the Stampbord dimensional element as well.

After all, just today I was saying that I need to buy a friend a fruity drink with an umbrella.

Die Cut and Embossed Card

The flowers were cut and embossed using the Spellbinders Sunflower die.  But I didn't want them to be sunflowers, so I changed up the centers with a metal-rimmed tag, and a buton tied with blue slate waxed linen thread.

These are mounted onto a trio of sanded squares on a diagonal line.

Finally, I ran the card through twice on 'emboss only' mode, with the Borderabilities Grand Daisy die to make faux-to corners.  I inked through the stencil with green chalk ink.

So that is it, for now — I hope you enjoy today.  It will be sunny and cool here and I will be selling snacks at the 'snack shack' during the football game.  Then helping out at a local handmade rug show in the afternoon.  Perfect.

Go make something!

About Sally Lynn MacDonald

Sally Lynn is an Anarchivist® that often mixes her love of creating and teaching art with her high-tech side – blending a love of handmade art with hybrid-digital media in what she playfully calls her ‘studio lab’. Every now and then her large-format printer is subjected to printing on a surface that definitely is not listed in the owners’ manual.

She is a maven for studio organization, using her abilities to use spreadsheets and databases to bring order from chaos. “It’s marvelous when the right and left brain actually work together in the studio!” Read More…

Amazing evocative #portraiture artwork by @calidag Amazing evocative #portraiture artwork by @calidagarciarawles . In 'The Space in Which We Travel' (2019), two girls in white dresses grasp each other’s hands, creating the impression of a double helix. “If they opened their eyes,” Rawles said, “they would see each other.” Water has memory. Lovely!

Just finished this little painting in my #sketchbo Just finished this little painting in my #sketchbook over a light pickup #monoprint for the background. I was reading a book on the porch this afternoon during a light rain, and dozed off; only to be woken up by a very annoying little egret sitting atop a palm tree across from me. His antics were so funny that I called my daughter out to hear him. And so I painted it in my sketchbook for a little memory. Can you find the egret?

Working on the courtyard patio. The weather is so Working on the courtyard patio. The weather is so lovely today, and so I dug out some chairs and a table from the garage and our new @abba_patio 7x9 #cantileverumbrella to create a seating area to enjoy. These days staying at home is all about #outdoorliving and creating spaces to nest in, work on the laptop, read a book, sketch some plants or enjoy a cocktail as a family.
