Quick Birthday Card for Challenges


Hi friends! 
Here's a CAS birthday card I made with some challenges in mind:

Less Is More: Stripes
(my 2nd entry)



The Heart Desires: Color Palette


Addicted to CAS: Rainbow


Sugar Pea Designs Challenge: Inspiration Photo


The design in my card is stamped with a PTI border stamp (from the same stamp set than my first card for LIM stripes) and is colored in with Copics. I added a simple stamped sentiment from Concord & 9th. I tried to add sequins and what not but nothing seemed to work so this is one of my no embellies, no nothing cards! The expression "no nothing" comes from a concert hall location where they don't want you to enter one particular door.... There's a sign "no backstage, no exit, no nothing" and it always makes me smile. They really don't want you to go trough that "no nothing" door. :) !

Thanks for popping by!

This is one awesome "no nothing" card, Nonni! The floral stripes are so pretty and you've shaded them beautifully. The simple sentiment is the perfect foil to them. Lovely! Thanks so much for playing along with us again at Less is More :)

No nothing is good in this case - great design, those colourful borders look fabulous.

Toni said...

A border stamp, huh? You've used it perfectly to add even more interest to your card by stamping it twice. You're giving me ideas! THanks for joining us at The Heart Desires!

What a pretty card. I love the colours you've chosen and, with the simple sentiment and single rounded corner, this is a really elegant design.

Swooning over this card Nonni! The shapes and colours in those borders are stunning. Yes - "no nothing" suits it; and embellishment would take the eye away from the gorgeous stamping. Thanks so much for sharing this with us at Less is More xx

The repetitive pattern looks great in all these rainbow colors. My mind goes blank with the mentioning of rainbow so I can assure you, this is something I would never come up with as idea. Love it!
