Second week of 2010

For the Second Week of 2010 Creative Cybercrop Challenge the task is to make a card based on my sketch below. Use whatever colours, papers, stamps and/or embellishments you would like. Make it for any occasion you wish. Just show me a card based on the sketch. That's all! And if you do, you could win a special little RAK from me. Scroll down to find out what the RAK is.

To inspire you I have already made a card with the sketch and have used some of the new stamps from the upcoming Sale-A-Bration catalogue.

For the main embellishment, I stamped out the embellishment in two different colours, then punched out the different elements of it and put them back together using the two different colours. You can do this too if you have circle punches to fit such a circle embellishment. Then I popped up the centre pieces with some Stampin' Dimensionals.

You may wonder how I made the top section of the card? I used my brayer and an ink pad for that. I tore a piece of scrap paper to make a mask, then laid that down on the card. I brayered over the torn bit of my mask and the top of the card. If you would like to see how that is done, I demonstrate the technique on my Reflections Card page.

Don't be afraid to experiment with the sketch a little. Your card doesn't have to wind up being an exact copy of my sketch. My intent is simply to inspire you to make a card this week that is BASED on the sketch:)

In Australia, Sale-A-Bration for 2010 is over now, but you can see more about how to have your own fresh, new stamps by reading about fresh promotions on my Stampin' Up! promotions page.

Now it's your turn. Go ahead and make a card. And be sure to show me what you have made, OK? I'd love to see what you do with the Second Week of 2010 Challenge sketch.

Oh I ad better not forget about the little RAK! This week the last person to upload an entry (before midnight on Sunday 31st January Eastern Standard Time) will receive a handmade greeting card from me as a prize!

enjoy the Second week of 2010 Challenge!
