Today I made a card for Papertreyink Make it Monday #12 (Hand-drawn Line Frame) that also fits the color challenge at CR84FUN. Top find out more about the CR84FN challenge, here is a link for the details. http://cr84fncolorchallenge.blogspot.com/2011/04/cr84fn24-terrific-top-3.html The colors this week are Red, Aqua and White. Such a great combo!Here is my card:
I used my Impression Obsession Cover a Card: Roses stamp in Hawaiian Shores ink to stamp the pattern around the hand-drawn frame. It was actually easy to draw the line frame, much easier than before I watched Nichole Heady's MIM tutorial. Here hints about drawing penci marks at each corner helped so much to create a straight line. I stamped the sentiment from Mat Stack #4 and used that sweet little ladybug stamped with it's red polka dots for the main image. The little train is made with red stickles and is quite glitzy in person. I need more practice making even dots with my stickles, otherwise I was happy with the results of this card. Thanks for taking a look!

Cathy this is so cute! I love the frame!
Very nice. I love the colors, and the ladybug with its trail is so adorable. You distributed the colors so nicely, and your frame looks great. Nice work. ;-)
Adorable. Goodness me love the lady trail. Cute as. CR84FN have the best color combos on the planet if you ask me. This , in your capable hands, just proves it. I am so impressed with your frame. To hand draw it would do my head in. I thought that's why they had a stamp for it? Lol. Boy you have nailed it. Steady as a rock. Tres impressive. Gorgeous card!
Cathy, this card is so great! I love the way you did the frame itself (outside the hand drawn frame). The ladybug is adorable, and the image really lends itself to the color challenge. Great work!
This turned out great! Love the stickles for the trail!
Love your ladybug and the trail that leads to the sentiment, very cool! And of course the rose border ;)
so fun! love that little ladybug :)
This is such a fun card. I really like the ladybug and the rose backing is lovely. You did a brilliant job of the drawn frame. Thanks for playing along with CR84FN this week!
I love the way the trail loops around the sentiment! Absolutely perfect placement!
