Cards in Envy No Patterned Paper

Time for a new challenge on the Cards in Envy blog.  This time we want you to create cards without any patterned paper.  Of course, solid paper is Okay.  Think out of the box and make your own background.  Here is my handmade background card.

I created this background by cutting out two of the gear die-cuts and gluing them to card stock.  I then applied foil tape over the top and used a bone folder to show the relief of the gears.  The alcohol Ink was applied over the foil to give it texture and color.  The images are from the Club Scrap Steamworks stamps and hybrid digital kit.  The sentiment is from Great Impressions.  

Come check out what the other Design Team members came up with on the Cards in Envy blog.  Then link up your cards made with no patterned paper.

Happy Crafting!

Cards in Envy Green

Today starts a new challenge on the Cards in Envy blog.  Your card can be any theme as long as you show lots of GREEN on your card.

I used the Club Scrap It's a Plaid, Plaid World collection.  I added some crystal shamrocks that I had in my embellishments.  Come on over to the Cards in Envy blog and link up your green cards.  Check out the green cards from the rest of the design team too. 

Happy Crafting!
