Hometown Summer Card for Summer Online Card Camp Week 4

I made another card using colors from the Color Combo for week four of the Summer Online Card Camp 2011 with Kristina Werner and Jennifer McGuire. I love this stamp set from Pink Paislee. The little boy is adorable. This is the first time I've had a chance to play with this stamp set and look forward to using it more.





Supplies
Cardstock: Whisper White (Stampin' Up), Metallic green paper from DCWV Lemon Flower stack
Ink: Island Indigo, Pool Party, Tempting Turquoise, and Lucky Limeade (Stampin' Up)
Stamp Set: Hometown Summer Collection (Pink Paislee)

Another Bonus Color Combo Card for Summer Online Card Camp 2011

Here is another card I made for the Summer Online Card Camp using this Bonus Color Combo. I think I like this card better than the one I made earlier using the same materials.



Bonus Color Combo - Summer Online Card Camp Week 4

Each Friday Jennifer McGuire and Kristina Werner provide additional bonus color combos that you can use to create cards. This is the color combo I selected for the card below.


I love these colors. The card I created is very simple and uses not only scrap patterned paper, but I also used the strap from a cameo I was going to discard as ribbon.


Summer Online Card Camp Week 4

It is the last week of Kristina Werner and Jennifer McGuire's Summer Online Card Camp. The color combo for this week included green, teal, turquoise, sky blue and white.

Summer Card Camp 2011 - Week 2 Card 3

A third card I made for the Summer Online Card Camp 2011 by Kristina Werner and Jennifer McGuire. This card was made using cardstock I had previously stamped and other scraps. This idea/design came from a video from Kristina Werner, which I will post below. Thanks for stopping by, please comment.


Stamps: Hero Arts
Ribbon: Papertrey Ink, Stampin' Up
Inks: Papertrey Ink, Stampin' Up

Please see below for Kristina Werner's fabulous video.

Summer Card Camp 2011 - Week 2 Card 2

I wanted to post the second card I made for Kristina Werner and Jennifer McGuire's Summer Online Card Camp 2011 Week 2 Color Combo Challenge. I posted the color combo in my earlier post. This card wasn't quite coming together the way I had imagined. I stamped the Kaisercraft musical score in different colors on a piece of white cardstock. Then I used the Stampin' Up Medallion in clear embossing powder. I distressed the background with Tim Holtz distress ink. The background paper is from the DCWV Lemon Flower paper stack. I used a scrap piece of white satin ribbon from Stampin' Up and colored it with the new in Color Lucky Limeade. The flower was made using the Stampin' Up Manhattan flower and embossing with white embossing powder. I colored with Smooch spritz. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks for stopping by!

For the background I used a Faux Bleach technique that I learned from Laurel on her Ustream channel (LaurelfromNJ). Please see my YouTube video for more details on this technique.
