#the100dayproject : handmade card 31/100-2 : thanks slimline
Posted by Kerry Wills on
happy friday friends! we made it to the weekend! personally i am super jazzed about a day off [tomorrow] to enjoy some creative projects, some cleaning & organizational projects and the return of michigan football! woot woot for that!
i'm not sure about you, but this week was a doozy. i'm not sure if it was a full moon or the change in weather, but it seems like no matter where i was - people were crazy. or - maybe it's me, who knows?

#the100dayproject : handmade card 25/100-2 : autumn greetings
Posted by Kerry Wills on
i don't know about where you live, but where i'm at in ohio - it's really starting to feel like fall weather. when i woke up this morning it was 38 degrees outside and it only got to be about 52 degrees as a high today! brrr! despite being chilly all day, i decided to channel some of the beautiful aspects of fall - the changing colors of leaves specifically - for today's handmade card.

the idea was to have them look like they're floating or flying across the card but i'm not sure that i love the results. [it's amazing how things turn out differently in real life than in our heads!]
each portion of the colored wings are slightly darker than the wings above it, creating that transition of color for the ombre look. the black portions of the wings are so incredible detailed - it's absolutely amazing to me how crisp and clean they stamp! [i have a few more ideas for some cards with these wings, watercolors and a resist technique that i still can't wait to try!]

i was so excited to come home to a new stamp set today, only to find out that apparently it was signed for - by someone else - and isn't actually at my house. [insert very frustrated kerry here.] mind you - i've never signed for a package from this company in all my history of ordering, but still.
so while i wait to get into contact with fedex to figure out who has my package and how i go about getting it back - i decided to play with another new stamp set that did actually show up. yay for that!

today's card is a straight up copy - of myself! i first made this card last year and i absolutely love the way it turned out, the reactions it received and the requests for more!
