In this week's Friday Focus by Kristina Werner, she challenged her followers to use the new folded card technique that she introduced, based on a book by Laurence K. Withers. In her design, she used a sentiment about friendship through the seasons, which ran through the 3 views of the card. I decided to use 1 Corinthians 13:13 in my design, which was read in my wedding and was fresh in my mind after working on a commissioned art piece a few weeks ago.
For this challenge, I used "Mi-Teintes" card stock by Canson for the base and "Mocha" textured card stock by Pressed Petals for the insets. I also used a Pigma "Micron" fine line pen for the calligraphy, 2 Making Memories scrapping flowers, a vintage leaf, a button, thread, a scrap of grosgrain ribbon, a glue stick, double sided tape and Martha Stewart's Glittering Glue. My tools included a guillotine paper cutter, Martha Stewart's scoring board, an X-acto blade, a ruler, and an EK Success corner punch.
This was a fun card to make. I truly enjoyed the color scheme that emerged, and it would make a perfect gift card for a wedding. Did you take Kristina's challenge?
