Insider Class - Wrap Up Day

Today was the last day of the Insider class. I can't believe it's over already, such a short class... = (

I made this card for my last homework assignment. I didn't really use the techniques taught in today's class, but the instructors' cards triggered my idea.

I used a sheet of acetate as the card base and covered certain areas with various patterned paper (from Sn@p! Simple Stories, same as yesterday's card).

This cutie pie is Twirl Anya from the Greeting Farm.

The "Hello Life" came from a strip of patterned paper.

Insider Class - Day 3

Today's class was about adding a surprise to the inside of our cards. I finally found a way to use up some of my Sn@p! products and had a lot of fun putting this card together.

This card opens in the center. Happy B-Day is written on the inside of the card. Well, not written, I used Kelly Purkey's alphabet stickers.

I attached a piece of acetate to the shorter flap so the two flaps can overlap when the card is closed.

 I covered the card front with patterned paper and then added washi tape on top. The mini Polaroids also came from the Sn@p! paper pack.

I added a pocket and a note card on the inside of the card. I also covered the interior of the card with patterned paper and then with washi tape.

Insider Class - Day 2

Day 2's homework is to make a card where the outside of the card ties to the inside of the card. I think I went a little over board with the interior but I had fun making and colouring the images. The image I used is Dorothy from Kraftin Kimmie, which is one of my all time favorite!

Materials used:

- Kraftin Kimmie Dorothy stamp

- Neenah Solar White 80lb Cardstock

- Black and aqua cardstock (purchased at Michael's)

- Various Copic Markers

- Pattern paper (scraps in my stash)

- The Twinery Twine - Caribbean

Blue Raspberry Colour Challenge & Insider Class - Day 1 Homework.

This is the second card I created today and it has dual purposes. First as an entry for the Blue Raspberry Colour Challenge at the Greeting Farm Blog and second as a homework assignment for the Insider Online Card Class.

For the Blue Raspberry Colour Challenge we have to include berry, pink & blue/aqua colours in our cards. I used paper from the Simon Says July 2012 Card Kit, Alphabet Stickers by Kelly Perkey (from the Simon Says October 2013 Card Kit), and a few Enamel Dew Drop Stickers by Freckled Fawn (from the September Oh Deer Me Embellishment Kit). The image I used is the Hatter Bean from the Greeting Farm. 

For the Insider class we have to add interest to the inside of our cards. I decorated the inside of this card with the same pattern paper as the front. I also coloured the edges of a piece of white card stock using some Tattered Rose Distress Ink. I was so happy that the colour matched perfectly! ^_^
