I went a little scrap happy this morning! Over at SplitCoastStampers {SCS} there was another challenge to make a card with just ONE layer. That first layer had to start out as plain white card stock.
HERE are the THREE cards I made under those restraints:STAMPS: SU Dear Friends
INK: SU Basic Black
PAPER: White Card stock
ACCESSORIES: Ribbon, ZIG twin color markers
STUFF I USED FOR THIS CARD:
STAMPS: {Verve} Up, Up & Away
INK: SU Basic Black
PAPER: ehansen - Flight of Fancy
ACCESSORIES: digi kit, paper piercer {where the stitching is around border}
STUFF I USED FOR THIS CARD:

Another challenge on the SCS was to use a Clean & Simple {CAS} color challenge. The color challenge was to use Kraft/Pink/a coordinate. My coordinate was brown. Instead of making a card, I embellished a notebook I picked up at the $ Tree for $1. The binding area is a strip of brown while the covers are Kraft! TOO easy. I just added pink!

INK: SU Rose Passion, SU Real Red, SU Pixie Pink, Pigment Ink Brown

The last challenge I will share with you was a real butt kicker. I tried to do this one yesterday. The challenge was to use acetate {transparency paper} and print on it with a computer printer. The image is supposed to be black and white and then you flip the image over and color the back with markers. First of all, I don't have the right acetate for my printer. Second of all, no matter what I did, the ink couldn't/wouldn't/flat out refused to dry. This made flipping it over to color a bit difficult! Like Impossible to do without smudging a LOT. And then since it won't dry, now that the card is done, I can't give it away because the image will still smudge off! But anyhoo, I made the card, completed the challenge, and now I guess I can just throw this one in my round filing cabinet!
