A is for ...

Hi!  It's time for another challenge at Just Add Ink and this week our challenge is to Just Add 'A'.  I went a rather obvious route with 'apples', but I also threw in some 'angled' panels as well to keep it interesting.



I colored up this Power Poppy image during the last Daily Marker 30 Day Challenge and set it aside to use someday.  When I put together this card, I did some out of the box die-cutting with a stitched rectangle die and also used lots of patterned paper.  The notebook die is from SugarPea Designs and the stitched dies are from MFT.  The image is Copic colored, although I don't have a photo of the markers I used as it was so long ago.



I finished the card with some clear droplets.  Thanks for visiting!  Be sure to head on over to the Just Add Ink blog to see how the rest of the team added 'A' to their cards.

    Gorgeous, as always Karren! In awe of your beautiful colouring, though I think it's all the layers (angles and all!) that makes this card so special! Kelly x

    This is absolutely gorgeous Karen! Your apples are so beautifully coloured as always and I love how you've partially die cut them and the fun touch of your angled panels too. Xx
