Letter For You

 Hi and welcome!  Our challenge hostess this week over at Freshly Made Sketches is Amy O'Neill and she has a fun sketch for us to play with.  I went with an envelope instead of the banner shape in the sketch but I think it still works.


Onto a Grout Gray card panel that I'd cut with a postage edge die I used embossing paste to stencil a text-y pattern.  I thought I was using white embossing paste but this looks more translucent so maybe I grabbed the wrong jar.  

While that was drying, I die-cut lots of flowers and foliage in new Spellbinders colours as well as the sentiment and a white envelope.  I arranged the elements into a pleasing patter and adhered it to the stenciled panel with foam tape. 



I didn't add any other embellishments, leaving it somewhat clean.

Thanks for visiting.  Please check out the fabulous cards made by the rest of the design team.

Karren
