modern basics gift set.



I broke up with my camera yesterday.  We are not on speaking terms over how today's cards were photographed...

I used a cute set called "modern basics" - it contains all sorts of building blocks that allow for so much creative play!  And play I did. I had so much fun that I couldn't stop at 1 card - I stamped 4  :)


Now, as I was saying about my camera (I had to take a short break in there and talk about the stamps so I wouldn't start getting stressed again), it - not me, natch - made it look like my card colors are grey and orange.  I would like to state, for the record, that although grey and orange is a delightful combination, I actually went with yellow and grey.  And because I love that combo so much, I'm doubly annoyed that it wouldn't photograph well.  Sigh.  C'est la vie, non?



I built the cards using 2 sets, 2 colors, and 2 papers:


  • modern basics + simple sentiments (both PTI)
  • going grey + daffodil delight inks (both SU)
  • guidelines (PTI) + going grey cardstocks (SU)


It was very refreshing to sit down with more limited supplies and see what I could come up with!



And with that, let me add: TGIF, baby!  Have a great weekend, everyone!
