Sending You Sunshine!

Happy Saturday!  Popping in with a card to share.  I am playing along with this week's Papertrey Ink Make It Monday Challenge Embossing Enamel Splatters,  Papertrey Inks Transformation Tuesday Challenge, and Tic Tac Toe Challenge.



For the Transformation Tuesday Challenge, I chose to transform this card.  Here are more details on it if you are interested. 

I really love the fall colors of the above card, but I did not like all the hard and dark framing of the sentiment.  It seems to overpower the soft warm tones as well as the card.  For my transformation card, I decided to go with a softer frame as well as more vibrant colors since the seasons have changed.

I started with Papertrey Stampers select white card stock.  I started stamping Stitching Garden stamp set florals and leaves to mimic the all over patterned background from my previous card.  I used harvest gold, bright buttercup, prairie grass, amethyst allure,  pure poppy, scarlet jewel, ocean tide, aqua mist, royal velvet, honey nut, lovely lady, hibiscus burst, simply chartreuse, ripe avocado inks.  

Once I had the background the way I wanted it, I die cut and layered several of the scalloped Keep It Simple Frames dies using Stampers select white card stock and glued together.  I stamped the sentiment from Corner Adorner: February mini stamp set onto vellum paper using versafine onyx black and heat embossed with clear embossing powder.  I  added this behind behind the sentiment just like in my original to soften this portion of the background.  Next, I die cut in gold foil card stock as well as stampers select white card stock and glued together strength and dimension the Sunshine die.  

Once I had the card put together, I sprinkled on the embossing enamel heat set.  I love this look!  I got the Stampendous White which has some gold flecks as well.  It is really pretty.  I finished my card with a few clear sequins.
