CASolgoy #79: Paper Patchwork Card

by May Park-

Hello, crafty friends! I had a wonderful time with my hubby in Las Vegas last weekend. The most exciting thing was that he won some money at casino slots. Then we came back home with all the winning money yesterday, and it will cover the luxurious spa/massage and fine restaurant on Valentine’s day next month. Doesn’t it sound perfect for a romantic evening out? 🙂

Screen Shot 2014-01-17 at 12.34.15 PMOkay, without further ado, it’s time for a new challenge over at CASology! This week’s cue word is CONTRAST! For today’s card, I wanted to create an almost-clean-and-simple card with a vibrant contrast of colors using some patterned papers. So I pulled out my sewing machine to try something a little different and I love how it turned out! Here is what I came up with:

I went with triangles on my super colorful card, inspired by Jocelyn’s card at the CAS-ual Friday challenge: Color BlocksI made a patchwork design myself using strong bold colors and fancy patterns from a pack of Japanese origami paper. I cut the papers into random sizes, adhered them onto the panel, and sewed them with zig zag stitch. For my card base, I used the Rustic Cream cardstock by Papertrey Ink to achieve an oriental-paper-look-alike.

After that, I punched out the bottom of my quilted panel to make a space for the sentiment. Then I stamped hello from the Good Times stamp set by Mama Elephant in Memento Rich Cocoa. I finished off my card by popping the panel up on foam tape.

FYI, my inspiration came from Korean flower card game which is “Wha-tu“. Since the Korean New Year is around the corner, January 31, it remined me of my family and relatives playing wha-tu during the holiday. As you can see, there are 48 cards in the game, and each card has simple yet beautiful image in it.

Since this week’s cue word is CONTRAST, I made another version of my first card with same layout, but I used some solid cardstock instead. It’s SUPER CAS to make, right? But I want to call my quilted card CAS as well, even though I used multiple patterned papers. Grouping the busy patterns together in one side along with leaving white space was great way to make my design clean and simple. What do you think?

That’s all for today. Be sure to head on over to CASology to check out the amazing inspiration from the rest of the DT. I hope you link up your CAS card showcasing CONTRAST!  I can’t wait to see what you’ve created!
Thanks so much for stopping by, your visits are truly appreciated. Happy crafting!

    Do you have a spam issue on this website;
    I also am a blogger, and I was wanting to know your
    situation; many of us have developed some nice practices and we are looking to
    swap strategies with other folks, why not shoot me an e-mail if interested.

    First of all I want to say fantastic blog! I had a quick question which I’d like to ask if you
    don’t mind. I was curious to find out how you center yourself and clear your mind before writing.
    I have had difficulty clearing my mind in getting my ideas out.
    I truly do enjoy writing but it just seems like the first 10 to 15
    minutes are lost just trying to figure out how to begin. Any suggestions or hints?

    Cheers!

    I was curious if you ever thought of changing the page layout
    of your site? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.
    But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better.
    Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or two pictures.
    Maybe you could space it out better?

    Woah! I’m really loving the template/theme of this blog.
    It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s very hard to get that “perfect balance” between user friendliness and visual appearance.

    I must say you’ve done a great job with this. In addition, the blog loads very fast for me
    on Internet explorer. Exceptional Blog!

    I have been surfing online more than 3 hours today,
    yet I never found any interesting article like yours.
    It’s pretty worth enough for me. In my opinion, if all website owners and
    bloggers made good content as you did, the internet
    will be much more useful than ever before.
