Happy Saturday! I have a couple of cards to share today. For my first card, I am using the colors from The ColourQ, Retro Sketches,and Simon Says Challenge For the Love of Plants.
I used a kraft base that I stamped with a natural ink to darken it up a bit to look more like soft suede. I layered the elements from the sketch. I used MFT Written in Watercolors sentiment set. I die cut the Modern Bloom die namics and stamped with the coordinating Modern Blooms stamp set. I finished with a few sequins.
For my next card, I am playing along with CAS(E) this Sketch, The Card Concept Inspiration Challenge, and Just Us Girls Stacked die cut Challenge.
For this card I started with some MFT Smooth White card stock. I used my Mini Ink Blending Tools and Mini Ink Blending Foam Refills to blend MFT Razzle Berry, Blu Raspberry, and Grape Jelly inks. I then die cut one of the solid Fancy Butterfly die namics. I die cut the detailed one with smooth white and added it on top. I added the sentiment from Tickled Pink. I finished with a few clear gems and sequins.
As always thanks so much for stopping by!
