In this little corner of the world I get lost in creativity; a craft project, an article or just in thought.

Finding inspiration in card challenges


     I enjoy using challenges to inspire my creative side. My card making activity has definitely decreased in the last year since I haven't been participating in these awesome challenges. Not only do I enjoy the creative thinking these challenges require but also the feedback from fellow card makers always brings on a smile!
These two cards were derived from the combination of two challenges. The layout of the card was designed by following the sketch on Freshly Made Sketches blog. The Scripture verse on the card was not a mandatory requirement for the challenge on the Word art Wednesday blog.

 


I was pleased with the 1st card so I figured while the supplies were out the 2nd card would come together quick. Basically they are the same except for a few small details like the size of the font for example.
