WCMD; Scratch Off Card

Happy World Card Making Day! Yes, there is a thing and I try to participate as often as I can. Afterall, I am a cardmaker!

I have a really fun card today. Not only is there a fun fold but there's also an interactive element. Can you say, scratch off card? Yes, that's exactly what this is! 


I bought these scratch off stickers at least three years ago at the Expo from Pear Blossom Press (the same place I bought the lights) and I finally used them. The main reason why I used them was because I purchased this super cute stamp set, In Your Future from Pink & Main. They also sell the scratch off stickers on their website.

After I stamped and colored the images, I fussy cut them so I could add them to my card front & side flaps.


Watch the video to see how I created this card:


The card base is a 5.5x8.5" piece of cardstock and score it at 2", 3 1/8", 5 3/8" and 6.5".

Cut two pieces of patterned paper at 1 3/4" x 5 1/4" for the two outside flaps and two pieces of white cardstock at 2" x 5 1/4" for the card front & the back.

It's a simple fun fold card that folds flat when putting it in the envelope but will pop out when removing it. So fun!

I think the hardest part about this card is that I needed to find patterned paper that fit both a magic theme and a birthday theme. This colorful star paper was perfect for both themes! If you look really close, there are no purple stars in the paper, but it still matches perfectly!

WCMD Card Sketch #4; Sketch n Scrap


It was World Card Making Day earlier this month but Sketch n Scrap has provided a new card sketch every Saturday this month to celebrate. This is WCMD Sketch #4:


I used a piece of paper from my stash that was used to test ink pads on. I was going to toss it but decided to keep it. I love it as a background piece. The cardbase is Wild Salmon from CutCardStock and the other piece is the backside of a pocket page card.



The owl is from the October Stamp of the Month from CTMH. Isn't it so cute!? I used a tri-blend alcohol marker for the owl and two shades of green alcohol markers to color the image.

Check out the process YouTube video here:


This card started one way and ended up completely different at the end!
