Hello friends! The Card Concept's new challenge is this gorgeous
inspiration photo:
Are you as 'wowed' as I am? So many directions and styles you could choose.
Contrast of the red bloom against shimmering white satin drape was my starting point.
I selected Altenew's Build a Flower: Aster and Aster die, and stamped
the red Bold Bloom.
Lots of drama and and a sentiment banner to mimic the photo.
Here's the link to get you started, and to see the rest of the DT's inspiration:
PTI's Banner and sentiment
Background is a stencil from PTI's Make It Market: Garden Gate
Wendy Vecchi Embossing Paste (Gold and Silver)
A few sequins from my stash.
I'd say it falls under the category of Classy and Elegant.
Our challenge is for 2 weeks, and you can choose from the styles listed
on the Card Concepts's blog, or combine a few of them.
Happy Crafting! Hope to see your creation in the challenge lineup!

ReplyDeleteGorgeous card Nancy and so happy to say I am the recipient of this beautiful piece of art. It's even more stunning in person.
