What a gorgeous photo! I decided to do some ink blending for my card and added some black, just like the photo, to come up with this card:
I blended distress inks in a light to dark pattern from bottom left to top right. Once that was done, I die-cut a black panel using the Striped Sentiment Strip by MFT. Onto that, I embossed with Tiger Lily EP the sentiment from Rainbow of Happiness set. The panel was added to the card base with foam tape and I finished with some clear sequins.
Thanks for visiting. Check out the fabulous inspiration from the talented Color Throwdown design team:

ReplyDeleteKarren, this card is simply gorgeous!!
ReplyDeleteFabulous! I love how the sequins look like they 'setting'or 'rising' behind the black bands. A perfect take on the challenge.
ReplyDeleteBold and beautiful!

ReplyDeleteCongrats on your Guest Designer spot, Karren! What a fabulous card! I love how you blended your inks from light to dark, and the black panel is the perfect touch! Tiger Lily EP is new to me, but I'm loving the effect it has, and your sentiment is spot on!!!
