Please take a peek at my post at the Paper Crafts Connection blog today where I talk about different styles that are featured in the newest special issue of Paper Crafts called Card Style.
At the Paper Crafts Connection blog, I am sharing a Fun and Cute card and a Clean and Graphic card. Here is where I'd like to show you a Classy and Elegant card and a Shabby and Vintage card.
First is the Classy and Elegant:
what makes this card scream "classy and elegant: is the dreamy ribbon, clean flower with a flirty center...some classy pearls, a sophisticated font
And here is my Shabby and Vintage card:
what drives this card towards the "shabby and vintage" category is the distressed edges, paint, lace, "vintage" buttons...a bit of nostalgia with the ticket stubs, beautiful pins and layers!
I have TWO issues of Card Style to give away...YAY!!
So, to be eligible to win a copy...please tell me what style you tend to gravitate towards, whether it's the style that you create within or the style that you just adore. You have until Tuesday, July 12th at midnight to share your thoughts. Winners will be posted here on Tuesday, July 13th. I include descriptions of all 4 styles at the Paper Crafts Connection blog
PLUS...I have THREE more copies that will be given away on the Paper Crafts Connection blog...so pop on over to grab another chance to win over there.
I also have a challenge for you that's coming your way on Saturday.
xoxo
Woohoo! Thanks for the chance to win!
I tend to create more in a clean, simple style. My eye gravitates toward the shabby-chic type projects, but I don't usually craft that way.

I love the look of Shabby/Vintage but I tend toward Classy/Elegant -

I have no style because I like everything I see! I'm trying hard to narrow it down-but failing miserably.

I would say I'm a clean and simple girl with a touch of elegance! =) I'm drawn to the vintage look but I don't really know how to pull that off. I would love to win the magazine and try the other styles out for myself.

Oh my, all the styles have their own beauty.
However, I am so drawn to the shabby style.
I think it is fun to veer away from whatever one's style is and try something different.
It allows for appreciation of all the styles.

Thanks for the great giveaway! I'm really drawn to the Classy and Elegant look...always have been.

I think I am drawn to the classy and elegant look, but if it's too clean, I have to "shabby" it up just a little. Thanks for the chance to win! Love your blog!

I am drawn to shabby/vintage style, although I don't pull that style off very well. Thanks for the giveaway.

Great cards kim! I lean towards fun & cute, but enjoy doing a little Shabby/Vintage here and there. Thanks for the chance to win!

Oh Kim! I love your cards!!! I love shabby & vintage, but I tend to be more classy & elegant. Thanks for a chance to win a great magazine.

I tend to gravitate around the shabby style. I love the old look and the use of paint combined with lace and pearls. Your card is absolutely gorgeous. Thanks for the chance to win a copy. Have a great day.

Clean and Graphic is my style, though i've been known to make a few Fun and Cute cards too. I admire the other styles but lack the talent to make them.
Posted by: Priya | July 14, 2010 at 03:52 AM
I definitely gravitate towards a combination of Fun & Cute and Clean & Graphic. My cards run simple, too simple sometimes actually.
Posted by: jengd | July 14, 2010 at 03:54 AM
Clean and simple, or clean and graphic is my go to! Love how you can manage the others, beautiful cards!
Posted by: Karen B. | July 14, 2010 at 04:47 AM
Shabby Chic is my style and I love your cards today!
Posted by: jan | July 14, 2010 at 04:57 AM
I think Clean and Graphic is my forte followed by Fun and Cute. Love all four of your cards demonstrating all four styles.

Shabby Chic and Vintage seem to be my faves, although I do make lots of Classy & Elegant when I have to make a large quantity of cards. I also tend to try to make the type of card the recipient would most like.

Beautiful Kim!!

I'm more of the clean and simple type and like bright colors. But I'm learning all sort of things to make cards of different styles and loving it!
Posted by: Donna Rinckel | July 14, 2010 at 05:42 AM
I tend to make cards that are cute and fun. I love girly stuff, cute animals, bright colors, and whimsical in my cards.
Posted by: Jessica B. | July 14, 2010 at 06:02 AM
My fave is fun and cute!.. just love to play around with stuff! :)
Posted by: Spardha | July 14, 2010 at 06:05 AM
I gravitate towards clean and simple...at least while browsing and loving cards! IDK what my own style really is!
