Just a quick post today, to share pictures of the cards I made over the weekend. The first one is for a coworker who lost her husband to cancer. The agency I work for is getting a nice plant for her, and I volunteered to make a card. This is what I did:
The plant we are giving her is a hydrangea, which I love, and I had wanted to try to coordinate the card colors to the flowers. However, I couldn't find a paper I liked in the right color. This one is nice though- it's a very subtle floral in pretty sky blue shades, with just a hint of gree in in the leaves.
Next is my dad's Father's Day card:
I used the striped paper as the jumping-off point for this one. I like the combination of blues, browns, and green in the paper, although in the piece I used, there is only one green stripe...and it ended up being covered by the sentiment. I liked this paper for my dad because his favorite color is blue.
Lastly, I managed to make a couple of new washi paper cards:
I mentioned awhile back that I had found a seller on Etsy,
susiestablefare, that sells washi paper, in addition to some of her own creations with it. These two papers were from the bundles I purchased from her a couple of months ago, and I really like the vibrant colors! They are both kind of patriotic too, with the red and blue in them.
That's all for now- not sure what to work on next, but I do need to work on stock for my shop, so check back soon!
