A quick post to enter a couple of cards in this week’s CASology challenge: Juicy.
One of my go-to kits for quick cards is the Papertrey Ink: Still Life-Summer kit. When I saw this challenge, and needed a couple of thank you notes, once again, it filled the bill.
I scored a pattern onto some white cardstock, added a strip of patterned paper from the kit and four die cuts. A quick, easy, and cheery thank you note.
Recently, I’ve been attracted to bright colors on dark backgrounds, so for the next card, I made essentially the same card but with a black background. The all black was too stark, so I layered it on a Raspberry Fizz card. Bright and cheery, even on dark cardstock.
The cherries reminded me of one of my favorite treats in the summer: Rainer cherries—expensive, but oh, so sweet.
Hope your day is bright and cheery, too!
So pretty. I think I prefer the white, but the black really pops. Love cherries, so tasty and good for you too! Look lovely served up on your Mackenzie Child’s plate.
I second everything Nan said!
I like all the lines you incorporated on the cards especially the first. The sections of fruit, scoring on the card and herringbone lines create lots of texture and interest.
All the cards are really nice but I will say that my favourite is the hot pink with black, very striking. Reminds me that I have some scrap paper with red cherries & black/white border … umm time to find it & use it!
Delightful cards; lucky recipients will treasure. Cherries look delish!…and go quite well with the card!
Cheers~
