Along the same lines as the previous card as the stencil was still on my desk and I had the made to surprise box set out so I thought why not make two same but different cards, this was a go to when I was stressed with making so I am trying to do that again to alleviate some stress. Now I am aware that card making should be a de stress but sometimes when you have a lot to make and not much mojo its not stress free lol
This card came together so fast it made my head spin, its for a bingo friend and the idea came about after a discussion about tea one evening, I knew she would get the concept and the sentiment and she did immediately. It was nice to revisit an older design that I enjoyed making but that does seem to be a recurring theme at the moment.
I felt similar during lockdown as I do at the moment, everything feels heavy and I hope it passes sooner than the lockdown did.
When I was looking for a design for this teenagers card I remembered the net stencil and that I had this made to surprise set and an idea was born. I have used this set with quite a few images so far and its so versatile for those guys in our lives.
Last of these for a while, not permanently though cos I made a few lol. I tried to make these look different by changing the inside colour but I am not a fan, so the next ones I went back to the original colours.
Can you see a theme lol. I had the stamp in my misti so I stamped a few more, as usual I tried to match the hair colour of the recipient and I know this card was really liked and they commented that they wished they had a cardi like the one here lol.
Recently I showed a lady with this very background and this is the card that the background was left over from. I do love a two for one deal lol. And again you might recognise this stamp set but not this colour combo. I have a large group of friends from bingo and as they have never seen any of my prvious cards it makes it easier to recreate a favourite and of course I get to make a card that makes me smile.
Another nod to a classic design and even a classic stamp too, I went with very different colours this time and the design panel was already on my desk so kit seemed a shame not to use it.
I think everyone has had this lady stamp now, it was a firm favourite in 2020 thats a fact lol. when I stamped the image out I was reminded that the card magazine it came with is no longer in circulation and that made me sad, I can't believe how many magazines have come and gone since I started this hobby back in 2005.
