Hello, I have a super quick post today sharing two fun collage birthday cards that I created by cutting wonky shapes from paper. So easy, anyone can make them and they require minimal supplies. I think they are so cheerful and happy.
I started by going through my acrylic gel press and scraped scraps but you could just as easily use ready made paper. I picked out some melon (just made these for my last post on covering journal covers: read HERE), green, blue and gray. After I was done sorting I decided to add some red to the mix too. I then cut out silly whimsical shapes and glued them onto an A2 notecard. I handlettered a quick sentiment to complete the card. Nothing precise or perfect here!

Now that I see card #2 finished, I think it has a real Eric Carle vibe.
Supplies:
- Colored Paper or Mixed Media Scraps
- Scissors
- Glue (I used UHU stic glue)
- Card Base
- Black pen (for sentiment)
I found this cardmaking session very satisfying. What do you think? Would you try this?
Karen
