Today's the day for the March Card Chain Challenge Reveal - I sent a card to Jo in the United Kingdom and received a card from Gail in British Columbia, Canada.
Here is my card:
Every month there are options for designing your card - you can use all of the options but just have to use one of them.
For my card, I used the color options - black, white and one other color (I used pink), and I used the theme 'on the farm' - using a pig image.
First, I stamped the pig from Piggies Crushed It in the center of a white card panel. I colored the image with pink and black Copics. Then I stenciled around the image with Milky Way Stencil using a blender brush with pink ink. I die cut the Polaroid frame and layered it over the image, popping it up on foam dots.
I stamped the balloon again on a piece of white card, colored it, cut it out and layered it over the stamped balloon and over the frame. I die cut the FRIEND from Fun with Words die set and adhered it to the lower edge of the Polaroid die cut. I colored in the heart on the 'I' of FRIEND with a pink Copic and added 3 black Tuxedo hearts around the card. Instead of adhering the panel to a folded card - I adhered a die cut easel to the back of the panel.
Please join us in this fun monthly challenge where we send and receive a card to places all over the world! You'll find all the details about signing up for April at The Card Chain Challenge Blog. You have until April 6th to sign up!
