We ended with Background Bonanza & I used the fun Tag You're It set. The images are stamped in VersaMagic Spring Pansy, Pink Grapefruit, Turquoise Gem & Mango. The sentiment from the set is stamped in Versafine Smokey Gray & trimmed into a flag which is attached to a slightly larger gray flag. I mounted it flat on the edge & used foam tape on the flag end. The card front is covered with spray glitter & embellished with little gems. I'm also entering CropStop.
I always try to participate in the challenges at Ellen Hutson. Currently the Mix It Up challenge is with Neat & Tangled.
I stamped the N&T frame (3 layers) with Brilliance Starlite Black for 2 layers & Graphite Black for the top layer. The panel is cut with a Lil' Inker rectangle. The EH Bold Blossom flower was cut from self-adhesive fun foam. I left all the pieces in & covered the back with double sided adhesive. Then I carefully removed the release paper from the inside pieces & covered them with Elizabeth Craft silver glitter. Then I removed the outer piece & covered it with purple glitter.
This is the first time to use 2 glitters & I love the result! The leaves were cut from vellum, stickers make the sentiment & I added some splatters of Distress Stain Burnished Pewter. The entire panel was attached to the gray card front with fun foam. I'm also entering SSS Monday & Twofers (I love flowers).
wonderful cards Greta - love the purple flower with the glitter!

ReplyDeleteLove the light airiness of #1's created background...and the texture on the images is just wonderful. #2 has a great look as well, and I love how you've used that scribbles flower (think I have that one, or a similar). Looks so pretty with the bold outline and the silver inlay. The vellum leaves look very delicate against the neutral shades of the other elements on this pretty card. TFS & happy wk.
