Hello everyone!
I'm so excited to have been asked to be a guest designer at the Crafting by Designs blog. Today their challenge is FRIENDS/FRIENDSHIP and here's the card I've created.
I thought I'd play around with stencils and inks today since I knew I wanted to make this sentiment my focus. I've really enjoyed creating backgrounds with stencils ... so easy and fun. I'm so hooked on dies these days that my poor stamps have been neglected terribly. SO I grabbed an old favorite .. SU 'botanical blooms' to add a little 'floral pizazz' to my sentiment panel. I used the same sponging colors as my stenciled background for the edge but used Spectrum Noir alcohol markers for the coloring on the flowers.
Truth be told ... I was doing a little 'clean up' while creating this card by using a few die cuts that were laying on my work table from previous projects. (i.e. Garden Green border die, Purple butterfly, Ivory floral wreath) It just seemed like the right thing to do and I'm happy with the outcome! Hope you like it to!
