Oh!!!it's so freezing cold outside and its snowing like crazy. My younger daughter slipped 3 times and was in pain!!! so she just wanted me to keep cuddling her...lol
Let's talk CASADIA(a case+an idea), a fun and brilliant idea started by Wida !!! It's a chain of cards, where you create a card inspired by the previous card in the chain. The first card in the chain was this card below by Laura Bassen.
You can see the whole chain HERE and after many cards later Chupa created this beautiful card.
I like the colors black, red and a touch of orange. I love the polka dot pattern and the white space with that tiny heart as the focal point. So I created my version using all those points I liked. I used the sketch from the current Paper Smooches Sparks challenge.
I used the red polka dot pp. I tried something new to me "the chalkboard technique", I just changed it a bit. I did not emboss using white embossing powder just to keep it a bit soft as I wanted the focus on that tiny orange mouse, just like Chupa's tiny heart....lol
I also wrote some chemical formulas using a white pencil to give it real hand written feel.
Thanks Wida for asking, it really was fun.
Supplies:
Cardstock: (solar white, black) Neenah; Pattern paper; (Dots and Stripes) Echo paprk paper company; Stamp: (Great Chemistry) Paper Smooches; Ink: (memento black) Tsukineko, (frost white) Color Box, (snow) Hero Arts chalk ink; Copics, white pencil (faber castell)
