Orange & Black "Great Day" Card

-
This card was created for the Super Sunday Challenge at GettingCricky.com.  The rules were that you had to use orange and black and you could include one other color.  I chose to keep it to the 2 colors only.  This was a fun card that I created "on the fly".  Watch the video below to find out how I created the background for the front of the card.


The sentiment on the inside of the card was stamped using "Coffee & Tea for You & Me" by K. Andrew Designs.  Find out how I achieved the shimmery effect on the sentiment by watching the video.


Thanks for stopping by today.  I think I may just do some other cards with these techniques.  Hmm...

Welcome to my little contribution to the Operation Write Home Blog Hop.  I am so happy that you stopped by today.  This is the first time that I've participated in an OWH Blog Hop, but I have hopped to other blogs during these hops before.  I can't wait to see all the inspiration out there. Today, I have chosen the Bonus Sketch #12 to use with this hop.  It is a sketch that my daughter chose to have me make her thank you notes for graduation before I even knew the hop details.  What perfect timing!  Be sure to scroll down to the previous post for a full tutorial and to see my daughter's thank you note.  Same technique and sketch, but a totally different card. I used the following supplies: Operation Write Home Bonus Sketch #12 K and Company - Ancestry.com paper Memento Tuxedo Black ink OWH / Hero Art stamp Stampendous - Happy Messages stamp set Thanks so much for stopping by today. Remember to take some time to enjoy the little things.  Have a
