Perpetual Playtime

I find I like the challenge of a monochrome design. Forces me to work with that color more. So I was happy to see a monochrome challenge on Squigglefly today and spent a little time in the craft room making a green card for this challenge. All of my cardstock is generic that I picked up at Michaels several years ago. The image is Beautiful Borders digi from Squigglefly and I colored it with green Copic markers. The green plaid that edges the stamped image is Japanese Washi tape. I also taped some cardstock with the Washi tape and placed it beneath the punched trim at the top, then trimmed the taped cardstock to match the scallops. The sentiment is from Inkadinkado. My card is a standard A2 so that I can add it to my box of cards for OWH .

This is my second card made specifically for challenges. I enjoyed making this card because there was a specific type of card required for one challenge (Squigglefly Challenge #63) , and a specific color scheme was required for a second challenge (SAV Challenge #31) . Well, actually, they are both color specific, but the Squigglefly color requirement is fall colors and the Stampavie color requirement fits. Additionally the color scheme challenge also required a Stampavie stamp be used. It took me a minute to figure out how to get my elements to come together, but I did it. I decided to make a miniature card for my granddaughter with the stamped (My Sweet Lili by Sarah Kay) image to use as one of the inserts for the pocket. I made her a bookmark for my second pocket insert. Card with inserts Here are the inserts - a miniature card with a poem about granddaughters inside and a bookmark with "KNOW" & "LOVE" tags. A non-challenge, non-card specific note...
