Layers of Color is sponsoring this weeks If the Shoe Fits Challenge and I am honoured to be a Guest designer, along with some of the other LOC Design Team.
The challenge is all about EMERALD - to use Emerald Bling or Green on your card
I created an envelope card - happily I was able to use something lying on my desk
and these gorgeous flowers from Petaloo, that have been sponged with Peeled Paint Distressing Ink and layered - I love the lush look of them!
I sponged the DP with the Layers of Color Vintage Medallion art stencil using the Peeled Paint Distressing Ink.
one of the things I love about this style of card is the tag
The edges have been sponged and a Corner rounder used on the corners
The flourish is for the Old World Flourishes art stamp set and the butterfly from the Butterfly Collector art stamp set. I have layered the butterfly to give it some movement and added a green large pearl.
This card is for the following challenges:
Crafts and Me - anything goes
Divas by Design - summer
My Mum's Craft shop - monochromatic
Paper Shelter Challenge - flowers

My gosh, this is lovely - why don't I have anything this pretty on my worktable? ;-)
ReplyDeleteI have never made an envelope card, which is probably WHY I don't have something so lovely on my worktable. However, you are convincing me to try them. Lovely use of the emerald color, I love how striking and romantic this is too. Beautiful embellishment and they work together perfectly. Works wonderfully for our Opus Gluei challenge and I thank you for sharing with us. Please, lovely Linda, stop by again and participate in our future challenges!
