It's time to show off our cards we sent during April for the Card Chain Challenge.... mine is still on it's way to Betty in USA unfortunately -- but I'm still sharing....
I used the colour palette and the layout design for my card
I stamped and embossed the flowers a number of times to create the arrangement along the side - using pearl white embossing powder... then watercoloured with Distress Oxides and Inks --- I did an extra flower and fussy cut this to add to the sentiment tag.. a die cut Hello from smooched card using the same colours. To finish I added a fine black card border.
I am also playing along with Watercooler Wednesday challenge #269 - Anything Goes ... AND .... STAMPlorations Never Ending Anything Goes challenge.
