Since this was my first event, I knew it would be difficult to coordinate stamp sets, inks, papers and dies so I created two kits...I pre-stamped the images on their cardstock so they could play along. In the months to come, I hope we can coordinate our supplies- so that we can stamp together-using the same sets. But for this go round- it was just fun to experiment and test out the new live feature!
While both cards are similar, the first card incorporates a "recycled" portion of a tag and some cute floral punches. I love how the white ink creates a bleachy look on the card.
Yummy posies!
The second card incorporates a sketch I created and shared in my monthly newsletter to my team. I love creating sketches and it's always fun to use the sketch as inspiration for a card! Here's the sketch:
OK...I LOVE how the orange contrasts with the pool color. Such a beautiful combo! :)
