NOV10VSNG2 ~ Saturday, November 13th ~ 12:00pm EST ~ Not a Cloud in the Sky
Title:
Not a Cloud in the Sky
Hostess: al_silver2 (Alanna)
Keyword: NOV10VSNG2
Day/Date: Saturday, November 13, 2010
Time: 12:00pm EST
I love watching clouds...whether I am laying at the beach looking up or cruising high above in an airplane....there is nothing prettier than a clear blue sky with the tiniest wisp of cloud or a cloudy sky with a ray of sunshine peeking through. I have attached some thumbnail pictures below as examples.
To reflect the beauty of these two types of sky,
my challenge is to make a card with lots of white space ...(or blue space, or whatever colour you like space!) Just make sure that the
majority of your design is "
white space ".
Here are some ideas to get you started : feature one of those tiny stamps in your collection, use some of the scraps you have left from your previous card or keep it simple with just a gorgeous sentiment...
VIEW THE GALLERY FOR THIS CHALLENGE

Having "space" is a good thing, even when it is white!

Hooray for all the white space lovers...
And for those who usually make beautifully embellished cards with lots of details - so glad you are stepping out of your comfort zone for this challenge!!

Here's my
sample . What's the name for the phobia for people who are afraid of wide open spaces? Agoraphobia? LOL!

It's taking forever for SCS to get cards up in the VSN galleries again. Mine has been uploaded (with the correct keyword) but doesn't show in the gallery.

I love to play with white space, so I'll have fun with this one. I have a "must do" card first, though.

Weel, I did it! Yea! I found this scrap and put it on a card I ran through the cuttlebug, and put some glitter on it! Here is
White Christmas.
A fun and quick challenge!
Thank you Alanna!

White space is always hard for me, so I went with one of my go-to sketches.
Here's mine: A note of thanks
