Hello lovely friends and Happy Valentines Day! I have been having so much fun getting my mojo back and have a few cards to share with you. So if time permits, I’ll have several quick posts for you today!
I found a new challenge blog! It is called Cards in Envy and this is their very first challenge! In order to participate in their challenges, your card cannot be thicker than 1/4 inch! That works for me since I have been trying to slim down!
This card was made using the Cards in Envy sketch (below and an older Doodle Pantry set called Pasque Flowers. It is not precolored so I got my Copics out and had some fun. I fussy cut the flowers and die cut the sentiment using SB. The main panel is white linen paper that is dry embossed at the top using a Darice border folder. The lower portion was colored using the ombre technique and then I added a strip from my scrap box.
