Texture Boot Camp

In this month's boot camp Paula talks about texture.  By running my ink pad down the side of the white card stock, I have created visual texture.  I heat embossed the flower and then fussy cut it and added it with dimension dots to create the tactile texture.  I also added the flourish in the back for visual and tactile texture.
My favorite boot camp so far!!!

Boot Camp

I am trying to use up some scraps, so I created this card for this month's boot camp.
My card is asymmetrical.  The Stamp is from Hobby Lobby and the papers are from
scraps.  The flower embellishments were also punched from scraps.  The black striped
washi tape is from Michaels. I aligned the image just to make the card look different.

White space

On Paula's last Boot Camp she talked about white space and how it can be used as a design element.
Here is my card with "white space".  I ran the white cardstock through my Cuttlebug and then distressed it.

Paint samples

We had all these paint samples left over from when we redecorated the house
and they have been sitting around for about a year or so.  I decided there must be a way 
to use them on a card and this is what I came up with.  I like all the different colors.
It was an awful lot of cutting though.  These 6 cards took several hours to make.

Fall cards


A couple of Fall cards for my next box to Write Home.
I love Fall colors and could make cards using these colors all the time.

Boot Camp...Principle of Unity

This month's Boot Camp teaches about unity on your card.  
I thought using star paper, star embellishments and
 grey washi tape brought this all together. 
 I made 10 of these cards and they will go in my next box to Operation Write Home.
