Cardmaking and Scrapbooking with Jean Manis
There’s a new pre-class challenge for the Summer Card Camp 2 using a provided sketch.
For my card, I combined a couple of Lawn Fawn stamps and die cut clouds. I paper-pieced the airplane windows, nose cone and engine parts.
Hope your week is off to a terrific start!

This past weekend, I took time off from cardmaking to watercolor some of the images from the Penny Black Mimi at Play set with Distress ink pads and markers. I find that I need to color the images several times before I’m happy with my results!
I paired Mimi with a sentiment from the Friendship set and a die-cut window. To cut out that area between her toy horse and the rocker, I cut off the rocker, cut out the paper, and then reattached the rocker with dimensional tape. 🙂

I took a short break from coloring to create a paper-pieced card using one of the images from Penny Black’s Blooming Garden stamp set paired with a sentiment from the Friendship set.
Once I had created the flowers, I referred to the handouts from Summer Card Camp 2011 to find a color palette that would work with the yellow and orange. I’m not quite ready for fall, but I definitely do like fall colors. I stamped the blue cardstock with the Letter Background stamp in Versamark ink to add a little texture.
