Summer card Camp 2- pre-class challenges
Finally, I am using this blog again.
I have signed up for this online card class; I have taken several before but I did not do the first summer camp. There were a couple of pre-class challenges, and I decided to try them.
Challenge #1 color challenge. I was unsure whether one color was in the peachy-orange family or more of a tomato red. I tried both.
The stamps are from a new HA set called favorite; the sentiment is from PTI.
Another take- I also used the LO design from the second challenge- IRL the two oranges are more similar.
OK, for the second challenge, it was a sketch challenge.
I went to town. Too much fun. My husband thought the card was too plain initially, so I added the color and splotches in the upper right corner. I 'm not sure it adds anything to the card.
Here's another.
And another- I varied on the original design as time went on!
And here is the final one:
OK, it's a wrap.

First Post- CardPatterns #70
This is my maiden voyage into the land of blogdom.
I have been making cards for challenges posted on line, but then rarely post them because I have to link through another site, etc. So, I have launched my own blog.
Ok, this is for challenge #70. Some day I will figure out how to post the template I am following!
This is HA poppies cling stamp- stamped on patterned paper with Versamark and embossed in white. I made masks of the flowers and after applying over original image, I colored the background with distress ink- vintage photo. Sentiment from HA,too.
