Hello!
This week is a technique week and this is such a fun week because we are being sponsored by gina k. Designs.
If you aren't familiar with her stamps and products go and take a look! We got to pick a stamp set to work with and I chose Tickle your funny bone! I just love the humor of this set! We're all getting older and unfortunately can't do much about it so we might as well laugh at it! After all laughter is the best medicine and I really believe that.
On to this weeks challenge. Pam has challenged JUGS to make a card and then decorate and line our envelope to match. I've had the die from PTI to line my envelopes with since it came out and this is the first time I've used it! It was so so simple and not even that much extra work that I think from now on it's going to be something I do for each and every card I make. It just adds that extra special touch!
I made several cards with this set but these are the two I'm going to show for today!

These are fantastic, Kathryn! I love that set and the humor! Why not laugh at getting older (even though I hate it!)? I didn't know there was a die for envelope liners...how fun! Great job with the challenge!
ReplyDeleteBoth cards you showed are so cute, Kathryn! Love the fun images and sentiments you used! Pretty patterned papers, too!
ReplyDeleteThese are SUper fun Kathryn - love those sentiments and I agree that we need lots of humor. I love how you pulled the colors from your images to then choose your envelope liner - well done!!!
ReplyDeleteSeriously Laughing Out loud!! Love these Kathryn!!
ReplyDeleteKathryn these are sooo GREAT!!! SO FUNNY! These are some of the best humorous cards I've ever seen! What a great layout and colors for each. Love your matching envies too!!! I've thought many times about buying the PTI die but I often neglect my envelopes - perhaps after this challenge, I'll consider the purchase. Dressed up envelopes look so nice! Great work girl!!
ReplyDeleteFor some reason, I looked at your follow listing and didn't see my pic!!! I thought for sure I followed your blog!!! Arggghhhh! I'm a follower now - sorry girl!!!
Both fun cards!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your kind comment on my 'JUGS' card and envie and for letting me know about the incorrect link! I have redone it, could you possibly remove the incorrect link for me?
Thanks,
Chrissie
