Happy Saturday! I have some exciting news to share! The ladies over at Crazy 4 Challenges have asked me to join the team! It is official! I am part of the Crazies! WooHoo!
This month Barbara is the host! This week's Crazy 4 Challenge-C4C136 Barbara is challenging us to an inspiration piece! I am also using this week's Mojo Monday sketch240 for my card.
For my card, I tried to pick out pattern papers that sort of mimicked the look of the fabric. I am using some Cosmo Cricket Evangeline dp. I heavily ink distressed not only the edges but also the whole panel to tone down the vibrancy a bit so I could mix more patterns together without them clashing too much. I kept with the circle theme by adding layers of circles as well as some open work with the larger frame in keeping with the bowl design. I finished with some metal detailing since bowl is metal, a loopy bow, and butterflies to add more dimension and pattern. I am using Verve's Thankful Accents, Small Celebrations, Blue Skies (smaller butterfly), and All Aflutter Plain Jane. I am also using Verve's Cut Above All Aflutter and Ribbon Banner die sets.
As always thanks so much for stopping by!
Betty
