The Daily Marker 10 Day Coloring Challenge Finished Cards, Day 3

I've got two more cards featuring images I colored during Kathy Racoosin's most recent coloring challenge.

Today's cards both feature journaling cards from my scrapbooking stash.  I have a ton of journaling cards, and I'm always looking for ways to incorporate them into my cardmaking.  

This first card features a pretty common journaling card format - there's a pattern on the top portion of the card, and then a white band at the bottom.  This format is perfect for cardmaking because that white space is just right for a sentiment.

I added a couple mats to the journaling card, a print from a My Favorite Things paper pad, and then a simple white cardstock mat.  For some texture, I added stitching around the white mat.

The image and sentiment are from Neat & Tangled's Slow and Steady set.  

I was really excited when I was flipping through my journaling cards and found the one I used for this second card.

I thought all those letters were perfect for a reading themed card.  

My stamped/colored image, from My Favorite Things Magical Friends set, was fussy cut and adhered directly to the journaling card, and then added a sentiment from Mama Elephant's Good Reads set.

Since the journaling card/image really stand on their own, I just added a simple dark gray mat.

Thanks for stopping by.  I'll have some more finished cards to share next week.
