Supplies and notes:
- Both library bases were sprayed with various shades of Dylusions ink
- The trim came from Tuesday Morning (shout out to Autumn at Sew.Paper.Paint for turning me on to that place!), and I just sort of loosely dotted Elmer's Craft Bond where the balls would end up. This gives each card such an awesome loose and much more dimensional look.
- The quotes were typed on my old typewriter, and the top one, as you can see, is outlined with a fine sea-green Sharpie (the Signature line?)
- I'll keep the birthday one in my stash at the school, and the Buddha quote will go to my friend Judi who is such a great person and values all good people. I think she'll really appreciate this quote.
I plan to enter these into the following challenges:
- Obviously, the birthday card is my entry for Seize The Birthday: AG
- These both qualify as entries into Darnell's NBUS Challenge (new bright pom-trim), but I'm specifically entering the bottom one... more colorful...
- Again, both qualify, but I'll enter the second into Tuesday Throwdown's #283: Frame It

These are brilliant, Mimi! So unique and so colorful!! It's really hard to stop staring at them in delight!! Thank you so much for playing in my NBUS Challenge #6!! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteSo totally different from the beautiful nighthawk piece, but just by looking at these I find myself feeling lots more cheerful and energetic, which isn't a bad thing, it's quite busy here and so grey and dull outside. We got snow, again, argh...
ReplyDeleteBright and cheerful! So glad you shared them at Tuesday Throwdown.
