Mary Gunn FUNN had Tracy Fear (@Not Afraid of Color) as her guest. Tracy enjoys mixed media and has been making cards for a while (has about 66 CR cards in her gallery). The wheel spun some interesting parameters for this week:
Project: Smaller/Larger - I thought it would be fun to do a square card that had a smaller square card on the front. I cut one A2 card to 4.25x4.25" & one to 3x3".
Colors: Planets - I googled and found this YouTube video describing the colors of our solar system's plantets. I'm sure you could find other solar systems with an even larger color range! I went with grey for Mercury, red for Mars, blue & green for Earth, yellow from among Jupiter's colors.
Element: House(s) - I pulled out an old Hero Arts stamp set from 2010 which contains a little house, among other images.
Random: White Border - I put a white border around the patterned paper atop the larger square card and echoed it on the smaller card.
Stamped the house image and colored with Copics; cut into a square and layered with blue and then the white border & onto a 3x3" card. Cut a second A2 card to 4.25x4.25" and added a white border to the patterned square. Assembled and added sparkle to the snow. Done, except to stamp the insides of both cards...
I had to laugh - while watching the replay, I just went to the parameters & paused it while I made my card. When I watched the rest, I saw that Mary had the same idea - a small card atop a larger one. Funny how great minds think alike!
That's it for today, friends! I hope to get around to commenting on everyone's projects from this past weekend. Thanks for stopping and happy crafting!!
