Scribbled Lives 2024 - Wk 39 - Cut Paste Card - Hi There


7"h x 5"w
Folded a deep brown Recollections cardstock into a 5 x 7" card. Adhered a piece of my gelli print paper. Cut out the thick portions of Carrie Imai's Carrioka Variations style letters from the brown cardstock and adhered them to the card base then added the thin portions of the letters using a Juice Up pen. Doodle the letters with a Gelly Roll white gel pen.

This will go into my next envelope exchange envelope.

Here is the booklet and Days 1 to 6. (it's every 2 days a new funny line of text)
