Valentine Fortune Cards by Rhonda Secrist Thomas
Filed under Art Projects, Giveaways, Newsletters, Rhonda Secrist Thomas, Star-Crossed Lovers Kit, Valentine's Day
Note: most of the links on this post no longer work, as we moved to a new Web site in 2018. However, you can see the supply list items from Rhonda’s project that are still available on the new site.
Psst! That Juliet Cards Collage Sheet is now available for purchase.
A couple quick announcements before Miz Bella (Kim Ayers) introduces some beautiful new artwork from the Design Team.
First: the artwork for the Home for the Holidays Swap is in the Gallery! (And that adorable house at left is by Teri Steele!)
Second: there’s a new FREE Gift Kit: Juliet Cards, which includes an exclusive, mini collage sheet with images sized for making your own Juliet cards (inspired by Rhonda’s artwork… read more below). More info
Design Team Member Rhonda Secrist Thomas is here with a gorgeous set of cards as her offering for the Star Crossed Lovers Kit and Add-On Kit. About her cards Rhonda said:
“How will the man make the woman’s heart feel today? Will he be passionate, absent, loving, needy, missing, or short? Leave her wondering what the heck is going on or make her feel high on a cloud? Well, my cards can’t tell her that but they sure do look beautiful.”
Yes indeed they are! Majestic roses from the Red Roses Collage Sheet and the lovely contrast of the green and turquoise from the New Yesterday Beautiful Past Scrapbook Paper are the base of Rhonda’s Love Her, Love Her Not Fortune Cards. Gilt, flowers and a bevy of babes — what more could you ask for?
Rhonda and her fortune telling cards have me thinking I should make my own set with the Blank Playing Cards. Making your own set would be quite fun, don’t you think?
You’ll want to have all of the fabulous supplies Rhonda used, so here’s her Supply List. After you take a look at the supplies, swoon on over and see Rhonda. She will walk you through how she created the sweet holder for her cards on her blog.
(And then come back! ‘Cause Leslie has pulled a loverly Giveaway with lots of the items Rhonda used… and the Back in Stock Square Paper Mache Box is a perfectly-sized substitute for the found box Rhonda decorated… AND there’s a New Juliet Cards FREE Gift Kit inspired by Rhonda’s artwork!)
