4cards1hour (part 2)

Using the March Hip Kit kit, these cards were part of my challenge to create 4 cards in 1 hour, I actually surprised myself and was able to complete the challenge. This first card was easy to complete because I already had the circles from the Blessed layout I created (posted below), all I had to do is find embellishments and I was done. I framed the card by adding stitching and a bit of mist splatter for a distress look. This is a perfect card for my hubby.


This card started with the Hello journaling sheet from the Amy Tangerine album (included in the March Hip Kit). Then I created a ticket, which is super easy to do and embellished. I think this card took a whole 10 minutes to complete. 


I think this will be a current feature on my blog, I like the challenge and always seem to push myself to think outside the box and not doubt my process as much.

4 cards - 1 hour (Part 1)

Happy Friday!!! The week has again flown by, the days are warmer and longer, the girls come home exhausted, they are in serious need of a holiday and I get to enjoy wonderful long walks with Alexia. I just love this time of the year. 

These cards are part of a set of 4, which were created with the March Hip Kit. My goal was to create 4 cards in less than a hour and I'm happy to say that it worked! When working with kits I always keep my cards for last, this way I can use up all those tiny pieces of scrap paper and random embellishments. 

This card was rather simple, splatter mist, add square piece of paper and layer title with paper and chipboard. Voila!


This card was a tad more time consuming, only because of the stitching. I cut the Jillibean Soup placemat to fit my card, added pattern paper, stitching and then the title. 


Happy early Mother's Day to all the mommies, I hope your day will be relaxing, with loads of hugs and laughter.
