Circle Card

Posted on | July 27, 2008 | 7 Comments |

Tired of rectangles and squares? How about a circle one?

This is what I did in my first card class at my local scrapbook store. You can’t see it too well but I used dimensionals on the orange and the blue dotted paper. Oh, plus the peapod too. Isn’t that stamp adorable? I got it at Archivers two years ago. The sentiment is A Muse. This was before I knew who A Muse is! To color it, I used Copic and SU markers. I only have a dozen Copic and so blending and shading is out of the question. I can’t do it well anyways so I think it might just be a waste of $$ if I get some for that purpose.

The card class’s theme was not another rectangle/square card and using dimensionals to jazz up a card. We did though do one rectangle card, I figured two none traditional card is enough, teehee…

I showed the class how the card would look without dimensionals and how it would look with. Just not the same. Dimensionals is an inexpensive way to give your card some body. If you haven’t tried it, do. You can find them ranging from $1 to $3.99. I get mine from SU, Making Memories, and some brand at Hobby Lobby. They’re different height SU being the shortest. I love them all since I use different height for different needs. If you find some on sale, you better hoard it up, in my house, they’re used up quick!!

Notice no ribbon? Eeek… but it looked ok I think. Have a great Sunday!!

Super cute circle card ala no ribbon :) Did you use a die cutter of some sort or just a plain jane coluzzle for the card base? {remember I’m one of the only peeps without a die cutter!} Such a sweet {pea} image!

cute card! Check out Marianne’s blog at http://www.ilikemarkers.blogspot.com for Copic tips. I took the certification workshop and it totally helped me understand how to use the Copics for blending….I highly recommend it!!

I am so with you about the straight edged cards. How nice to see something different. I am so hoping SU will bring back the scalloped edged notecards in the new catalog. If not, I guess I will have to relie on the coluzzle and nesties, LOL.
