In honor of penguin awareness day (who knew there was such a thing!), the challenge over at CAS-ual Fridays is to create a black & white card. Oh, the restraint I've had to show.
I started out with a sheet of PTI's guidelines grid cardstock, and stamped the frame from "button boutique" where I wanted it. I then stamped it again on some post-it paper, cut it out and put it down over-top. While my framed area was "protected," I stamped a pattern-pieces background (SU) all around. Thank you, stamp-a-ma-jig. I've almost forgotten what's it like to use red rubber :)
When I removed the mask (always a ta-da moment!) I then stamped the sentiment (from "button boutique") and threaded a juicy black button with some black and white twine for some extra fun.
Thanks for popping by!
Awesome,Elena! I love the background and the sentiment is perfect :)

ReplyDeleteElena, this is absolutely awesome!!! I'm so glad you played with us at CAS-ual Fridays!
ReplyDeleteReally great card. Those pattern pieces and the gridline paper look like they were made for eachother. Why don't I ever think to turn that button frame around. Looks great.
