A round card? Me? Who'd have thought? When I saw the MOJO sketch challenge this week I could hardly believe it. We were given the choice of doing a round card or a square card. I decided to go somewhat out of my comfort zone and do a round card. I think it turned out pretty cool. I saw this card from Mike Funke and was struck by the cool color scheme. I decided to use the same dp, but I chose sahara sand instead of basic gray.
The funny thing about this card is that despite the fact that I only used one button (I made some fake "buttons" with my circle punches and a basic black marker), the card kept being weighted down by the button every time I tried to take a picture of it. (It rolled to the side) I tried tilting my camera to get a straight shot, but all I got was dizzy. So I had to resort to using a clear block to hold it in position. I'm trying to pretend that it's a prop to sort of set the stage. In real life, this card is quite cute (if I may say so myself). Sometimes doing something out of the ordinary is just what the doctor ordered!
Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have time to stamp today!
Your prop worked really well - I had the same rolling problem! This card is great - colors so pretty!
