It's time for Challenge #195 on the Let's Craft & Create Blog. This month's optional theme is to use ribbon, lace, twine or all three on your card. I headed for my sadly-neglected ribbon stash and pulled out a beautiful magenta color that went well with the inked flowers. on my mini-slimline card.
The card background is a Taylored Expressions layering stencil that was a "free with purchase" gift a few months ago. When I received the stencil, I played around with it using colored cardstock. It's a 6" stencil, so cutting it in half makes it perfect for two mini-slimline cards! I inlaid the flower and stitched circle die and inked the flower and leaves. It's splattered with a variety of inks and then layered on white and a pink card base. The sentiment is from TE's
Foil It- Sentiment Staples and then die cut with
Sentiment Staples Dies. I love this combination because I can foil sentiments with my Deco Foil and Mini-Minc and then die cut them. I added some embellishments to finish off the card. This layering stencil is super-versatile. Take a peek at a
sympathy card I made with a different color combination I made for an IG Hop.
I hope you have a chance to play along with the Let's Craft & Create Challenge this month. Thanks for stopping by my blog.
Such a pretty card Cathy. Hugs from your teamie Zowie! x
