I'm honored to be back with my second card as the May Guest Designer for Word Art Wednesday.
The sponsor for this challenge is Art Institute Glitter. You can find details & lots of inspiration from the DT on the blog. I don't use my printer much for cards, so wasn't sure if this printed paper was a weight that would work. Hurrah--it did! I used a pierced AJVD die to cut it out. My original thought was to use the reverse side for die cut foliage. I tried one leafy branch & saw that it wasn't going to work. Since I really liked the verse printed on soft pink, I looked for other papers that might go with it--something I find challenging!
I bought a couple sheets of double sided paper for 25 cents each, not long before the virus hit. This might be a record for how quickly I actually cut into them--haha! I used PTI Scallop Stackers Medium to die cut the colorful panel which I attached to a dark green textured mat after tying on white crochet thread. Hard to see, but the mat for the verse is a soft pink & white matching floral design. The panel was mounted with fun foam for a bit of dimension. Why not join the gallery?
Thanks so much for taking time to stop by. If your blog address is in your profile or comment, I will visit you.

For some reason (computer has a mind of it's own) your posts aren't popping up on my feed. I hope I've corrected it now but I've missed several of your cards. I love that masculine card you made so much. This one for your DT is so pretty with the paper you chose and I love the sentiment.
ReplyDeleteSo very beautiful and a wonderful way to make the verse the focal image.
