More cards made from that huge stack of designer papers

 I was in the mood to make a couple of cards this afternoon, but didn't want to think too much (hahaha).

So I based them on the MFT sketch, and used up some more of the paper stack I cut.   I've made 10 cards with this stack, so far, and used multiple pieces of paper on each, and you can't even notice I've used any from the piles.  Using these papers up is going to take quite a while, I guess.  

Since I am not enjoying this stack any more, while I still like the paper and the colors in it, I'm going to put it away for a while, and do something else.  At the moment, I'm thinking I should try to make some cards from it every month, and hopefully it will eventually be used up. 

 

 

 

 

Here's what I made this afternoon.  Just one card design, but made two cards.  I liked the results quite a bit.  Still need to put a sentiment on it, but am thinking I'm going to make up several different ones, and put one on the card when I need to.  

 

 

My Favorite Things Sketch Challenge--Sketch 535

 I was sent an email about this challenge, and decided this would be a great idea to use of some of that tall stack of paper.  Here is a link to the challenge.

I followed the sketch, but very loosely.  I did a side fold card instead of a top fold to start with, and changed the proportions of the two stacked rectangles on the front.  I also did not have room next to the stacked rectangles for a sentiment, so will be adding one to the bottom right.

 

 

I thought this turned out pretty cute, so I made two of them.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I then decided to change it up just a little, using the same components, but made the design up-side-down.  I think this came out pretty cute, too. On these, the sentiment will probably be on the top left, although I'm also considering across the top rectangle at a matching angle.
