With You...


This card is for today's SCS Inspiration Challenge(IC192). I chose this vase to as my inspiration. This card is also for the BVC09.

I love the variation of the deep red and pink tones in the vase along with some neutral hues. I decided to use some scarlet jewel and soft suede cardstock. To get the sheen of the vase I chose to use some of the DCWV Luxury stack in the pink tones in various tonal patterns. I love the soft sheen of this paper.

I am using ODBD newly release set called Jesus.

I offset layered EK Success border punches at the top and bottom. I have had a few moments with this particular border punch. I think it is sort of too big or something. Anyway, after playing around with it, I decided I like it better layered. It seems to look smaller to me when it is layered. Thought I would share my quarky border punch moment. LOL!!! To finish my card, I added a satin scarlet jewel bow and some pink pearls.
