Blogger Challenge, Week 37




I'm late this week and I really combined a whole lot of challenges in to this one card.


Our blogger challenge this week to make a shaped card- anything other than a rectangle. I wasn't overly creative as I did a square card. I was attempting another shape but got frusterated and gave up.

Another challenge I was doing was to use flowers on your card with spring colors. Well, the person I was sending to loves Bashful Blue, as do I, so I though this would be a good springy card and I don't use my chipboard often enough.

The last challenge I incorporated into this card is a sketch challenge from Tammy. I'm addicted to sketches these days and find they really do come in handy.

Awesome Job Kim. You know I adore chipboard and love just about any card that contain even the slightest bit. I also like your layout (sketches are 90% of my starting points) and the colors your chose.

Cool card...and hey, A square is a shape right??? Sometimes just that amount of change makes a card seem all together different!
