Hi all! This is only the second card I've had time to make this week for fun! My week off work has ended up primarily being spent running around after a puppy - a cute puppy nonetheless but not what I planned!
Anyway, I snuck into my craft room to come up with this card for a few challenges. Happy Little Stampers Anything Goes With Dies, Seize the Birthday Anything Goes, Addicted to CAS Dies Only, Krafty Chicks CAS and Color Throwdown.
I've been playing with the NBUS Build-a-Wreath die set from Spellbinders. I die-cut the various images from white cardstock and used distress inks and blender brushes to add colour to all the components. I then arranged them into a pleasing design and adhered the elements together. You can't see in the photos but I spritzed all the flowers and foliage with clear shimmer spray.
Thanks so much for visiting.
Products used:
Ink: Forest Moss, Bundled Sage, Crushed Olive, Mustard Seed, Fossilized Amber, Dried Marigold, Spiced Marmalade, Ripe Persimmon, Ground Espresso Distress Inks
Cardstock: White
Dies: Build-a-Wreath, Hexi Gem Sentiments Hot Foil (Spellbinders), Nesting Rectangle Frames (Waffle Flower)
Accessories: Shimmer Spray, Gold Hot Foil
Cheers
Karren
