Hi everyone! Today's card uses the fabulous colors at The Card Concept along with the sketch at Seize the Sketch. My style for this card would be Clean & Layered, I'm guessing.
I started out with the background panel which I'd sponged with distress inks and flicked with water. I then white embossed the Tiny Flags stamp over the top. I love how the aqua and lime inks blended to look yellow! It's hard to see in the photos but I also stamped the flag background in Versamark on the White panel.
The horizontal panel gave me fits! I tried so many different option but had to give up in the end and used this white embossed panel which I line up with the triangles in the main panel.
The sentiment was cut twice in both colors then cut apart between the "thank" and the "you". I then used the "thank" in Lucky Limeade and the "you" in Coastal Cabana.
Thanks for visiting.
