Today's challenge at Papertrey Ink is to use something super-sized on your project. I decided to super size the whole thing! The card itself is 5.5x8.5 inches. I clear heat embossed the largest leaf image from Turning a New Leaf. I stamped the the large rectangle from Take Note in brown ink. I also clear embossed a long text strip from BB Text Style. Then I went on the hunt for my largest sentiment. I chose this one from YOF Violets. I also chose the largest button from my stash.
Adding a few more 'thank you' sentiments and I've got another entry for the 1st Make It Monday challenge too!
This one will have to be hand delivered......don't think I have an envelope this big!

Carstock/Paper: PTI Kraft, Bitty Dot Basics in Melon Berry

Wow that is a huge card! Even with it's size, your elements create such a nice balance. Love your color combo and use of sentiments. Great job!
ReplyDeleteI totally love that you super-sized the whole thing!!!! I totally love the colors too! Way fun!!!!
ReplyDeleteThis whole card is so good, Kara. You covered both challenges and with such imaginative creativity. I love the Take Note large rectangle. I never know what to do with that one. I love that you used the "biggest" of everything for this one. Great job.
ReplyDeleteI knew you would totally go outside the box on this challenge because you ALWAYS do. Fantastic ..... the cut out of the doily ....... is so pleasing to the eye and as always I adore the colors you are using!!!

ReplyDeleteSo creative - love the card size (Walmart does set envelopes this big in the office supply isle). Love your entire layout - sort of C&S, but not really. Clever doily treatment - reminds me of an antique cirdle pin.
