Welcome
I know I have not been around a lot of late, I have missed blogging but there has been a lot going on IRL, as well as some computer issues, i.e. an external hard drive not co-operating.
This card was made using a gray card base, and a layer of a blue shiny card
(I'm not sure what happened here to give such a deep blue background...)
with a S/B die cut of Cat tails. I took then as being wheat heads, and coloured them accordingly.
The sentiment was clear embossed over versamark ink.
The final detail was this beautiful sparkling ric rac over some washi tape.
I am linking this to:
(Die used was S/B Cat tails)

Hi Maxine,
ReplyDeleteThis is a beautiful card and I love the colouring and all the details along like washi tape and ric rac ribbon which match so well. Really elegant!!!
Wow! Stunning card!
ReplyDeleteI sure miss stopping by to see your handy work. Had you not said the wheat sheaves were actually cattails, I would not have known. Excellent! Love the design and composition.
ReplyDeleteLove, Hugs and Blessings,

Very, very nice! Since you colored the cattails like wheat I took them to be wheat. It's art and it's all good!
ReplyDeleteAwesome card! Thanks for playing along at ATSM.
