Hazel and Ruby: Blackboard

 

Welcome! I'm in Rosemont this weekend with Cindy Lawrence for a Copic Color and Ink Workshop--can't wait to meet some of you here. :-) Today I have three more cards to share from my Hazel and Ruby package. This line is called Blackboard, and it was fun to play with for sure! 

Blackboard-style art has been popular for a while now, and the Blackboard line works into this trend beautifully.

This is a clear card base with Blackboard rub-ons applied to the card front. I don't usually use rub-ons, but I loved these, especially on the clear card base. All sentiments on this set of cards are from the Blackboard set as well.

Not only did the Blackboard line package include patterned papers and rub-ons, but it also included bits of chipboard, like that flower under the ribbon above. I used a Spellbinders Foliage die template to cut the leaves from felt.

Hazel and Ruby: Gone Typo

Welcome! Last week I worked on a few cards for a new company, Hazel and Ruby. You can see their Facebook page HERE, if you'd like to know a little more about them. :-) Hazel and Ruby sent me two patterned paper lines, one of which was Gone Typo--a fun retro line shown below. (I'll share the second line as soon as I see that they have shared it.)

This card is a little larger than A-2 size--around 4" x 6", if I remember correctly. It's all Hazel and Ruby.

This card is standard A-2 size--4-1/4" x 5-1/2". It's mostly Hazel and Ruby, except for a sentiment from Papertrey Ink's Shutterbug Special stamp set that I thought would be perfect with this little typewriter! I cut a slit in the typewriter carriage to insert the sentiment.

This card is also standard A-2 sized. It's all Hazel and Ruby except for the sentiment, which is from PTI's Destination stamp set. I'm addicted to WORDS on a card front. . .   I used some Ranger Crackle Accents on that camera lens to give it dimension and shine.

I hope you have a chance to stop by Hazel and Ruby's Facebook page. I certanly had fun playing with their papers!
