You've Been On My Mind!

Happy Wednesday! I have a card to share today using the new inspiration from The Card Concept Challenge.

This challenge is Bright Florals!
Hope you can join us and play along.

I was inspired by the bouquet of flowers and textured background. I created a Clean and Layered styled card.

For my card, I wanted to mimic the look of the background behind the flowers. I opted to use the Letterpress Technique. I started with some hawaiian shores card stock. I inked up an embossing folder from my stash and added some distressed oxide broken china ink on one side of the folder in a haphazard sort of way so the ink was not perfect. I embossed the image. I am going for a more distressed letterpress look to mimic the color variations in the inspiration photo.

I die cut the panel using MFT Collage Cover Up dienamics and again with select white card stock. I glued the frames together and backed each square with a coordinating white square for added dimension. I added the panel and inlaid the squares to a top folding select white card stoc k base using Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive.

Next, I die cut and stamped Pinkfresh Layered Bouquet Stamp and die bundle. using select white card stock. I die cut a few extra die cut to layer behind the stamped panel for added dimension. I stamped and and white embossed the sentiment using the same Layered Bouquet stamp set. I die cut it using a double stitched rectangle die. I backed this panel with Arteza foam tape. Great price for this roll!I finished the card with a few clear sequins.

Here is a list of many of the products I generally

use every time I make a card.
