Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge: At Home!

It's time for a new Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge!

The LEAD of this challenge will be invited to be a guest designer in an upcoming challenge!

For my card I started with some designer papers that I have had for quite awhile. I just loved the wood and tiny flower combination. I thought it worked well with the inspiration photo. I found a piece of white card stock already die cut with the Life Style Craft's Trelis border die. I decided to use it to ground my focal images.

Next, I die cut and stamped two flower images from MFT Stamps Fall Florals stamp set and die namics. I die cut the "thanks" from MFT thanks and hello die namics. I cut it four times. Three with white cardstock and once with pattern paper. I added some Ranger Crackle Medium in a not so perfect way (so there were some bald spots) and let it dry overnight. The next day I sponged on some ranger inks to add definition to the distressed application areas as well as to the crackle accents.

I die cut a stitched sentiment strip and gold embossed a sentiment from MFT Kind Thanks stamp set. I thought this sentiment worked perfectly for the "gold" heart in the inspiration photo. I finished my card with a few clear sequins. I am also playing along with MFT Thankful For You!
