Part 2: VCMP cards

Round 2 of VCMP cards:

Masculine vintage image card: (Pearl Pen is harder to use than I thought.  Those dots are so wonky!)

Thank you card with sprayed ink:

Colorful background card: (I used the shaving cream tutorial from several years ago to make this paper and it's been in my stash ever since, so this was a great excuse to use it up!)

Things with wings:

July 4th VCMP Part 1

This past weekend, OWH had a Virtual Card Making Party to celebrate Independence Day.  I wasn't able to play along at the time, but I wrote down all the challenges and have gotten started on them in no particular order.

After taking Sandy's coloring class at Queen's Ink about two weeks ago, I'm really trying to color a bit more and amp up that part of my card making.  That's why I chose the winter kids images to use on those cards.

Challenge 15 (Love/Furry Creatures): This one was just scraps sitting on my desk, nothing fabulous.  

Challenge 6 (Two winter cards, one with a traditional Christmas color scheme and one with other colors):  




Challenge 18 (Sunday Sketch): OK, I modified it a bit!  

Challenge 16 (Teen card without teen stamps): I know my middle school students are obsessed with duct tape and so I used patterned washi tapes with a modern sentiment.

 Just 14 challenges to go!
