From the time I was 8 years old to about 16 or 17, I went to the same summer camp every year - and it was easily the best part of the summer! This summer I've joined an online summer card camp - and so far I'm loving it too!
This week's color combo is so bright and lush - full of summer fun!
I took Kristina's day 1 hint of going through my crafting supplies and scouting around for what would work with the color challenge. I pulled out some pretty papers from my humongous scrap pile (it really is huge) and pulled inspiration from them - especially the blue strip. I immediately thought of the "large than life" florals as a good match. Can you see I added some shine to the die-cut pieces? After I stamped them in versamark ink, I dabbed on some shimmer.
To break up all the bright color, I tore into the hot-pink paper at the top, and added a strip of white cardstock (stamped with "text-style II" in memento black ink) to the bottom. A few snips later, and voila! a fun little fringe.
Thanks for looking!
awesome job with the colors and the touches of texture at the top and bottom really makes it all pop! one great thing about camp is meeting new people :)
