Hello!
I have four new cards to show! They all are geometric ones and were made for a blog I designed for. Have to admit – geometry is not my cup of tea. I love geometric cards other crafters made, but myself cannot succeed in making them. I kinda don’t feel this types of cards or something. Maybe that’s why I’m not very satisfied with ones showing today.
But still 🙂
The first one – hexagons mosaic, inspired by a Pinterest image. Tried to replicate the background and almost succeed in it, but didn’t like how it looked along with hexagons. So I covered it with vellum and still didn’t like it. Finally removed that background at all lol.
Next – hexagons. I wanted to replicate this mix of flat and dimensional ones, made this by creating DIY-chipboards. Cannot say I like this card. It turned out to be kinda heavy (not only heavy itself, but also looks heavily).
The next one was inspired by Krystall chocolate bar. To give the similar look I scored a brown cardstock (A LOT), then masked and inked to give more dimensional look. Feel like something is wrong with it, dislike this card a bit as well.
Very simple card, well-know heart shape made from triangles. Cut them from different cardstock, adhere triangles in a casual manner, added a sentiment using my DYMO printer (which is neglected by me for some reason, forgot how cool sentiments are made with it).
The last one. I was making it like for a month. MONTH! I had this printed image I wanted to transfer to a cardstock. Which was easy, I used probably the first technique I learnt in my life (when was in kindergarten or so) – using baking sheet and a pencil. Next tried embossing, scoring, stitching – didn’t like. Finally drew it with a distress marker (with fine tip) using my pencil marks as a guide, added more color over with brush tip, made a watercolor look with brush and clean water. Some splashes and sequins as finishing touches.
