Next I took a 2 x 5" strip of the patterned paper and used my stamp-a-ma-jig to line up and stamp the Vertical Characters in Ultramine Stazon. I then matted this piece with Night of Navy Cardstock and glued down. To continue my doodling challenge I used the Chatterbox Whimsical Doodle Genie and instead of drawing in the lines I just dotted them to add swirls to the patterned paper with my Night of Navy Stampin' Write Marker. I love the Doodle Genie. This line of plastic templates are a great way to add flourishes and doodles to your pages and cards if you're like me and stamp because you cannot draw! :) The flower is an Imaginisce Azure Tiger Lily that comes in a package of 10 pieces with 3 petals each. This card uses two pieces for a 6 petal Tiger Lily. I absolutely love these - asiatic lilies are my favorite flowers! The flower is secured with a Making Memories Jumbo Brad that I embossed with VersaMark and Stampin Up Navy embossing powder. To finish, I punched two rectangle punches in the top to thread my ribbon through and tie a bow. This Navy ribbon is from an order I just made from Really Reasonable Ribbon.
So what do you think? Is the card off, or am I just being too critical of my work? This concludes my doodling challenge for the week. Hopefuly I gave you a few ideas and tips to inspire you. Here are a few ideas for next week's challenge, please let me know what you would most like to see...
