I got Matt’s birthday card made yesterday and it meets two challenges. Since he doesn’t read my blog, it’s safe to post it early. I used the latest CAS(e) This Sketch as well as the most recent CAS-ual Friday challenge which is to use black and white plus one. You won’t be surprised that it’s black, white, and red—one of my favorite color combinations. I liked the sketch as it was, so I didn’t vary it at all.
I think this is the last of a set of cards I bought from Impress years ago. I added a banner from Boxy Banners (PTI) and the numbers (Memory Box Typewriter die), and stitched it down. The sentiment is from PTI’s Birthday: Inside and Out. How is it possible that my youngest is going to be thirty years old?
Last week I used basically the same supplies to make my friend a thank you card.
The only addition here is a very old Making Memories brad.
I like the black & white & red combo – great cards!
Hi Karen! Love the bold stripes and color combo! Oh and to answer your question – stripes on my card were made with copics – using the broad side nib against the end of one of my acrylic blocks. I overlapped slightly the previous stripe with a different color. I did not blend at all. Hope that made sense, lol. Hope your week rocks!
You can never go wrong with classic nautical stripes! Love both of these – the pops of dark red are beautiful! Thanks so much for playing along with this week’s CAS(E) This Sketch!
Love the birthday card – the flag is wonderful.
