CCMC460 Crafting Forever

June 1, 2017 By Connie | 1 Comment

Whew!!!!  We officially made it through the MOVE part, but now are trying to find things!  Not a good experience with the movers…apparently they couldn’t read…some things in the basement belong upstairs, some in the garage go downstairs, remotes/cords for TVs all jumbled up.  I had everything MARKED!!!  Took them over 14 hours…unbelievable!  But, I JUST found my camera late Wednesday night!  For a company that came highly recommended by several people, I would be wary of recommending them to anyone!

 

But…it’s time for the Create with Connie and Mary Thursday Challenge!  This month’s challenges are a little different.  Since Mary and I were both busy with moves, we decided to “Case the Catalog”.  Here’s this week’s inspiration.  Could use the color combination OR the layout…whichever you preferred…and each of us did a little something different!   I used the Colors represented in the catalog photo:

Anyway…here’s my card.  I’m finally getting it uploaded at the last minute!

 

 

I had a little fun with angles on this card!

  • The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Soft Sky cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
  • I cut a piece of Whisper White at 3 x 3, then angled the sides to a finish of 2-1/2 at the bottom (if that makes any sense).  I stamped the container of brushes from Crafting Forever with Early Espresso Ink, then carefully watercolored with Crumb Cake, Garden Green and Soft Sky as represented in the catalog photo.
  • I also stamped the scissors from Crafting Forever with Early Espresso and watercolored them also.
  • I added a little trim of Garden Green cardstock along the left edge and a 1/2 x 4-1/4 strip of Early Espresso across the front.
  • I popped up both the angled piece and the scissors off the base Soft Sky cardstock.
  • The greeting from Crafting Forever was stamped with Early Espresso.

 

I had a lot of fun with this challenge!  Now check out the rest of the Challenge Team to see what they did this week over on Create with Connie and Mary!  And…make sure to check out our  NEW upcoming June Mini Session!  Lots of new ideas from the NEW catalog!  Hooray!!!

I love stamping cards, altering 3D items and making little favors. I've been stamping for over 20 years and will have my 19th year Stampin' Up! anniversary in early May. I love being part of something that sparks my creativity and hear people comment, "you MADE this?" I also enjoy sharing that passion with others in my classes! If you live anywhere in the Delaware, Dublin, Powell, Lewis Center, Hilliard or surrounding Columbus, Ohio areas, join us! I love to meet new stamping friends. Email me for a current class schedule... I'm adding new classes all the time!

    You are amazing. I would have to either focus on the move or on card making. And yet, you can do both. Your card is great. Love the color combo.
