Macarons

Hi!  I'm here with a card for the latest Fusion challenge.  I focused on the sketch this time and came up with this card.




I did some ink-blending with Distress Oxide inks to create my background, which was meant to mimic the pastel colors of the photo, but didn't quite get there.  A spritz of Perfect Pearls mist gives it a nice shimmer thought.  I then stamped and cut the macarons and arranged them on top of each other.

The white die-cut worked perfectly for the sketch and was popped up on foam tape.




Thanks for visiting.
