Big congratulations this week to the team at JUST ADD INK Celebrating their 500th Challenge post.... What a wonderful achievement - I believe over 10 years of fabulous inspiration. You should pop over to their blog and join in the Blog Hop, to see the fabulous cards from the team.
I got a new set of dies a couple months back and immediately die cut a few of the wildflower stems.... days later I saw these three stems in my round to it pile and decided to try blending ink to just the flower heads... I liked it and there on my desk also was this butterfly PP that didn't suit another card I was putting together - I teamed them up and used a cream fine border and a light brown card. This has been also sitting on my desk for a couple of weeks until today... I decided that a simple die cut sentiment would finish it off nicely.... chose to used pale metallic gold card for this.
During these trying times with isolation and social distancing I thought (along with other card makers) that I should send off cards to friends to keep in touch.
I am playing along with Just Add Ink challenge #500 - Add a Die Cut Word ... AND .... Pixie's Snippets Playground challenge #375. Thanks for stopping by my blog --- have a Happy Day and Stay Safe

ReplyDeleteSo fabulous to be able to use items on your desk to make a new card, Robyn! The ink blending over the flowers is so mesmerising and balanced beautifully by your gold die cut word.
