I ink blended Distress Oxides lucky clover & broken china, as hubby's favorite color combo is blue & green. The little heart was "colored" with a Gelly Roll Clear Star pen & I added black splatters. Simple one layer card I think hubby will like. I'm also entering SSS Wednesday & WAW.
The July Pinkfresh Studio challenge theme is Go Geometric. Circles & half circles are considered geometric, so gave me a chance to use Slim Braided Circles Panel. I knew I wanted to use my favorite Lush Vines background stamp and thought this textured green cardstock would be perfect. It's actually a brighter kelly green in person--so pretty. I white embossed on Bristol paper so I could use Zigs for the loose watercoloring. This stamp is perfect for that technique, in my opinion.
The 3 sprigs from Dainty Blossoms were die cut from a white scrap embossed with HA Sparkle powder. The sending hugs diecut from Perfect Sentiments was already black embossed & fit perfectly on this card.
Decided not to add any embellishments & just tied on a white crochet thread bow. I'm also entering SSS Wed via IG.
A perfect Anniversary card Greta and the other a pretty design. Wishing you all the very best with your surgery and hope you make a speedy recorvery.
