Here's my card:
I thought it would be fun to use the polka dot pattern as "wallpaper" and as a background for my "framed art." You can see it, right? I used Our Friendship Grows by Lawn Fawn as the focal point of the card. I started by black embossing the images so that I could do some watercoloring with my new favorite paints: twinkling H2Os. Have you seen these awesome paints? They come in beautiful, vibrant colors and add a subtle, iridescent shimmer to your project. It's so hard to capture the shimmer with the camera, but here's a close up of the card:
Notice the shimmer |
Since I don't own any brown paints, I just used my copics to color in the center of the flower. I then adhered the flower and vase to a little frame I made and "hung" the frame with some natural twine and a brad.
Thank you for visiting me today! I hope you'll join in the challenge-- Lawn Fawn is our sponsor and will be giving away a stamp set to the winner!
