TIME OUT Challenges: #100

Today, was my last day at work - I'm heading for retirement!  WOOHOO! Hopefully, I will be able to find serious time to craft. I found the current challenge at TIME OUT Challenges and how could I resist?




I'm good at making cards but not so good at mailing them or selling them or gifting them. I'm running out of space. I found a great charity which is grateful to receive "thank you" cards as they send them to their donors, who appreciate the "handmade" card. I feel that it's a win-win-win! Right? So "thank you" cards are my favorite card - because I have a way to donate them but also I love the sentiment of being grateful to someone else.

Here's my card

I used some Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers, which I arranged in rainbow order. I scribbled each color, in order, slightly overlapping the colors. Then I used a waterbrush to help the colors blend. For the sentiment, I die cut light grey cardstock with My Favorite Things Die-namics Thank You dies. For a bit of dimension, I also die cut some black fun foam. I adhered the cardstock and fun foam using Tombow Mono Multi Liquid glue. I added a few clear sequins for a bit of sparkle.

Thanks for stopping by
