OLS23 - Details

Susan here.

Heather's Sky's the Limit Challenge produced such a great diversity of cards...both in theme and style! I love that so many took the challenge and made it their own with such great-looking cards and just one layer. So much creativity! Many thanks to everyone who participated.


We've chosen some details that really caught our attention - we love the little details that make each card special!

Remember our blog badge for those of you whose cards have been featured here.

Join us on February 1 for our next challenge!

Susan's Details


Mac Mable combined crisp line stamping with a soft Brusho background for a lovely design anchored in a strong red focal point...and she finished the card with creative sentiment placement that works so well with the theme of the card.


Eun Ji Jung designed a sweet, soft "tea in the sky" card that uses layering of images, shading, and coloring to create amazing dimension and softness. I also like how she took tea to a whole new level that evokes nursery and dreams when combined with clouds and stars.





Karen Haman masked and used an embossing resist technique to create a soft constellation card that's out of this world! I particularly love the "ragged left edge" of her coloring that adds so much interest to the design. And all that white space makes me happy, too!

Gail Townsend created such a fun card.  Love the few clouds she sponged into the background.  This would make such a super card for a guy.




Lindsey's snow card is so pretty with a bit of sparkle from using a Stella Wink pen.  I love the purity of this card and the way she coloured the snowflakes.



Shirley Bampton's butterfly card just has such a happy and uplifting feel.  Love the way those whimsical butterflies are watercoloured.

I love how Jen's use of the upper portion of her card implies upward motion - very clever!



Lindsey's layered stamping adds depth and interest to her pretty snowflakes!



Foleysfriend's dramatic Northern Lights sky is allowed to be the focal point, by limiting the stamping.
