You’re One of A Kind
Hi there! Happy Sunday readers! I’m not sure about you, but the view from where I sit is quite gray at the moment. I mean this literally as it is winter in the mid-west. During this time of year I especially gravitate to bright colors, and it’s almost as if our guest designer Pamela Ho read my mind, because she delivered this punch of color in such a sweet designed card!
Enjoy!
I was going for a “super star” type of card and thought it would be fun to use the star from the cardbooking dies to create some negative space. Using the blender, I blended the red, orange and yellow together so that the colors would show up from the negative spaces. I added some enamel dots to finish off the card.
The envelope was created with the Simon Says small envelope. I masked the front using the speech bubble die and blended the ink to match the colors from the card.

Awesome card! I love the gradient, looks perfect!
That looks amazing I just love all the bright colours and die cut shapes !!!
That is gorgeous. I needed some hot colours! Cold grey and very windy here today. Must dig out my brights…..
Such a beautiful card! Love the blended colors & the star cut-outs. I’ll definitely have to “card-lift” this idea!
Oh the colors are so vibrant in this card. Love the way they were blended, and the negative spaces look great with the colors underneath. Thanks for sharing.

What a lovely bright card! Just what we need on a winter’s day!
Wow!!! That card and envelope are wonderful! Love the colors she chose and since I live in the same gray Midwest it really brightens my day! I have that die, I’ll have to this!
So darn HAPPY, Pamela!! It totally made me smile : )
Pamela, I really needed this punch of colour. I understand completely your need for a colour boost at this time of year. We’re not so much grey here, in the snow belt of Ontario in Canada, as endless white – pretty, but cold. I love your blended background – smashing!
This card is fantastic! I love the ombre background and the stars!
Very cheery and colorful!
Such a good idea !!!
