I created this card for yesterday’s Color Challenge on Splitcoast (Eggplant Envy, Ridinghood Red and Soft Suede), the Sketch Challenge from Waltzingmouse stamps and Flourishes Timeless Tuesday (using hardware).
I stamped one of the images from Flourishes Hearts & Flowers set in Rich Cocoa Ink on Neenah Classic White cardstock. It was cut and embossed with Classic Circle Nestabilities,colored with Copic Markers (R24, R29, R39, BV0000, BV20, BV23, BV25, BV29).
The image was sponged with Old Paper and Vintage Photo Distress Ink and stitched to a piece of sponged Red Ridinghood cardstock cut and embossed with large scallop circle Nestabilities. It was then layered on a piece of White cardstock, cut and embossed with Label 9 Nestabilities and sponged with Old Paper and Vintage Photo Distress ink.
A 5 1/2″ long strip of Soft Suede cardstock was cut with MFT’s Faux Crochet Dienamics die. It was stitched to a strip of Webster’s Pages Petite Paper. The bottom of that strip had been cut in a wave and thin lace (Walmart) was stitched to it. Above the Faux Crochet Border a 1″ strip of purple paper from Webster’s Pages Petite Paper was adhered underneath. White Organdy Ribbon was tied around the layers before the layers were adhered to the 5 1/2″ x 4 1/2″ piece of textured Kraft cardstock.
A sentiment from Hearts & Flowers was stamped in Rich Cocoa on a piece of Classic White cardstock, cut and embossed with a retired Spellbinders tag die. It was sponged with Old Paper and Vintage Photo distress ink.
The bow was topped with a Antique Brad from Stampin’ Up!. The sentiment tag as well as an Adornment Charm were attached to the bow with Jump Rings. The bow was topped with two Heart Trinket Pins by Maja Road to finish off the card.
Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a wonderful day!
