Happy Wednesday everyone! Today I'm playing along with the brand new challenge #1 at Scrapy Land, and it's "anything goes" using dies that are sold in their store. I'm using the Crafty Cutts Diamonds #1 & 2 for this card. I love using up those random snippets of card stock or dsp and cutting diamonds for cards. I used a card base of crumb cake for this one, stamping an Art Impressions Chihuahua image and coloring with Copics. I added a sentiment from MFP, and randomly placed the diamonds just for fun. I decided to make a 2nd card....
This one is a white card base, and I added the Art Impressions Dachshund image to this one. I make cards like this for cards for hospitalized kids, and the embellishments are restricted due to choking hazards, so I added some negative die-cut card stock bits instead of sequins or gemstones. I used primary colors because the kiddos seem to enjoy those more.
I'm also sharing these cards over at the Snippets Playground #140. I'm sure Parsnip will enjoy these furry friends to play with :)
Thanks for stopping by and make it a great day!

ReplyDeleteLove those brightly colored diamonds! I think you're right, kids do seem to prefer bold, basic colors.
ReplyDeleteCarol, the kiddos will adore these precious cards. The diamond shapes really add so much to the card and the primary colors are ideal for kids also. enjoy your day

So cute and fun. They are both great but my fave is the second. I like the idea of the second dog trotting over to see what the first is up to...like they really do!
