Hi Everyone, recently
MarietteVan Leeuwen organized a card swap through Facebook, we all know how much we love to send and receive cards😉. The cards were all made with Magenta stamps and stencils and I was sending mine to Mariette and
Dianne Johnson. To my surprise they arrived in the Netherlands and US from Canada in less than 2 weeks.
Here's the one I made for Mariette, it's a mixed media card with lots of texture.
Mariette makes wonderful mixed media cards and provides so much inspiration I wanted to show her how much I take away from her cards.
Dianne often has a more CAS approach to her cards which I love to see so I made a little book style card to send to her.
I have some extra large sheets of card stock which I cut at 5 1/2" tall, 17" long and scored every 4 1/4". I made it in an accordion style sticking the centre fold together, it made for a pretty book card. I had a lot of fun with this layout and will be making a few more in the future.
I hope you head over and check out both
Mariette and
Dianne's blog and take a few minutes to admire their work.
