I loved this 10 Minute craft dash challenge #1, and decided to play again. This time, I used a sketch from a new crafting magazine I just got called "Card Design Handbook" Funny to use the magazine for inspiration, rather than just read it. Here is a picture of the sketch. Pretty simple, right?
Here is my card. I just used three strips of Washi tape and a sentiment from PTI Sweet Spring.
I was able to make another card just like it, using some Washi tape I got from Target. This card is also for this week's One Layer Wednesday #101: Feeling Blue. I haven't played in this challenge for a while. It is hosted by different people every week, and sometimes I can't find it. This week I found it on Heather Telford's blog.
My total time to make both of these cards was 5 minutes 49 seconds. This is a super design for speed, and the washi tape is much quicker than die cutting. Hmmm....perhaps I need some more Washi tape?
What can you do in 10 minutes? I think everyone should give this challenge a try. You might surprise yourself.
