Heart F4A624 02/4/22. Unusual or Different Design

Hello, Everyone, hope you are all well and having a good day. We are getting ice and snow for the next couple of days. I don't expect to lose power, but thought I would post early, just incase. This week I am challenging you to make a card design that is unusual or different than the usual card designs that you make. Have fun and let us see what you come up with.

I chose a Pocket Card for this challenge. I think is only my second time ever making one.

Thank you for the push to use up some smaller than A2 card bases. I have been collecting them for about a year because I just don't do smaller cards. Here are my cards:

Smile F4A624 Cat Treat

Shirley- great challenge, thank you! Went with a rather CAS card, only putting a top border of fabric strips. Fussy cut my stamped elements, simply colored. Here's Cat Treat

I tried a fold I saw on a blog the other day. It was quite easy but fun to try something different. Here's my card.

Default Hi

This was a great challenge today- I got out a kit I bought 3 years ago while visiting the Netherlands and used it up- finally. There are 3-4 layers of each image with dimensionals between each label. Each layer has less of the image, so it looks very realistic..... They call it decoupage cards. My husband loves squirrels, and so does Gracie's mother Bernice, this weeks Teapot recipient. I am so glad to have a fun and different card to sent to her, and hopefully put a smile on her face!

Joy for Bernice

Shelly

Here is my different card design. I trimmed the card front to make a little different card front. Also using this for the TicTacToe Challenge.

MM Collage Week 5 by Shirleysgirl at Splitcoaststampers

My unusual and different is in a collage format. I used a couple of cocktail napkins to bring this spread together, so thought that met the challenge nicely.

I combined this challenge with the Ways to Use It challenge as that one this week really took me out of my comfort zone! Not my usual style. My card:

I love the look of paper piecing but I *NEVER* do it, so I paper pieced her raincoat and matching rain boots:

I am playing Challenge cardmaking, and hopefully, doing some catching up, as well.

This is a belated "welcome to the world" card for my third granddaughter for her Grandma Keepsakes box. I've never made a Pop-Up Box Card (aka Card-In-A-Box) before...what fun!

Here is my card in two versions, one showing the front view and the second showing three views: Front view - Welcome to the World, Evie!! and three views - Welcome to the World, Evie!!
