Hello and Happy 1st Day of June! Wow, where did the Spring go? Although, here in Florida, we don't know what Spring is...only Summer, an Autumn that feels like Summer, a Winter that feels like Autumn and then Summer again LOL!
Today begins a new challenge month at The Paper Funday Challenge Blog. The theme is Always Anything Goes and this months' optional twist is: Masculine. Our generous sponsors are Varada Sharma Designs and Digi Doodle Studios.
For my design team project, I've used the Doodled Flowers digi stamp from Varada Sharma to create an A2 sized card. A Huge Thank You to our sponsors for providing the images for the team to use.
I recently purchased an affordable monochrome laser printer because I wanted the ability to do more with digital images. For example, laser printer toner allows you to hot foil the images you print. For this image, I printed the image on 80 lb. Neenah Classic Crest Solar White card and then heat foiled using my laminator. I tried to capture the foiling and it is truly gorgeous.
In this digi set, the main focal image is included along with separate flower heads and leaves. I've printed and foiled the extra flower heads, fussy cut and popped on craft foam for dimension. The sentiment is included in the set and you guessed it...I foiled it also!
The panel was lightly inked with Catherine Pooler Cumberbund Blue Ink and adhered flat to the card base. For a final touch, enamel dots from Kat Scrappiness were added for additional visual interest.
Please join us at The Paper Funday Challenge this month. We would love to see your projects and hope to inspire you with ours.
Until next time, Happy Crafting!
