Usually my positive and negative pieces become separated from each other, but I decided to play out a creation of positive and negative pieces. I love the outcome on this one. Nothing like a rainbow of color.
So which came first? My card for Just Us Girls or CAS on Friday? Just Us Girls had a word prompt of "Rainbow". CAS on Friday had the prompt of "Friendship". So it started with a rainbow of colors and a "Friend" die. And I went first to create my card for Just Us Girls, taking that rainbow prompt rather seriously.
I
used temporary adhesive and put the "friend" letters down. I then did
some ink blending over the images to create my rainbow of colors. I
then removed the letters and put them aside for my second card. I
stamped my sentiment in black over the word friend, and then used my
color palette to stamp some stars around my sentiment. I used a blender
pen to color my images and match them to the ink blending.
A few sequins and I was done.
Moving to my CAS Card, I had cut the die earlier and was ready to piece my friend letters back into my white background.
I suppose a shaker card isn't completely CAS, but I left a lot of white space! I used some gray striped pattern paper, took the frame from my original die and put it on my card base centered on the pattern paper. I popped my colored letters back in, and then created a shaker window from the frame which was part of the same die that cut the letters.
A little acetate, foam strips and clay pieces and done.
I love that the letters have some darkness around their edges. It makes them pop, even though they are flat to the card.
Another positive/negative creative session in the books.
Want some fun? Create a rainbow!
