I chose to just play along with the sketch this time and came up with this card:
The leaves were made using a technique I saw on a video at Memory Box on using napkins for die-cutting. I didn't have any white napkins so I used a paper towel instead. I pulled out my Gansai paints and just slapped on various colors, including gold.
To tie in the gold, I die-cut the sentiment from gold sparkle cardstock.
Thanks for visiting. Please check out what the rest of the DT have done with this challenge.
Products used:
Cardstock: White, black, gold sparkle, paper towel
Dies: Leaves (Impression Obsession), Simply Said Hello & Thank You (MFT), Striped Sentiment Strip (MFT)
Accessories: Gansai Tambi Paints
Cheers
