I used my Silhouette to cut the three windows in a piece of black cardstock. I then took a sheet of newsprint patterned paper and white embossed the foliage and sentiment. I stuck that behind the cut-out windows.
From there I sponged Mustard Seed, Wild Honey, Spiced Marmalade and Ripe Persimmon onto the newsprint, leaving the center the lightest color. I finished off the card with some white homemade enamel dots. I would call this card Clean and Layered.
Thanks for visiting.
