Hello again. I haven’t posted for a few days, but I have been playing in my craft room. I have done a little mixed media project from a virtual event last weekend, and I will show what I have made at some point, but for today I have this card to share:
The background panel was created by adding some diagonal yellow strips of card, then dry embossed using a Spellbinders embossing folder. This way, the embossed pattern ran across the whole panel.
The layered flowers are from a die set from Waffle Flower, and I used some older Altenew ombre card packs to create them, colouring the centre parts with a Copic marker.
Once they were layered, I decided to add a white layer beneath the teal/aqua flowers, so they stood out a little more from the background.
I chose a dark green for the leaves to make them really pop.
I was going to go with just the teal/aqua flowers, but decided to add the yellow ink blended flower to complete the trio.
The foiled sentiment was added, and as I chose a black foiled strip, I added some black gems, also from Spellbinders.
I shall be entering the following challenges:
