Good Day Crafty Friends
Welcome to Colour INKspiration Challenge #52 Blog Hop. If you are following the Hop, you may have arrived here having just visited Rose Packer with her super gorgeous creation.
The Colour INKspiration Team have the most delightful colour combination for you to play along with this fortnight - Early Espresso, Whisper White, Granny Apple Green & Soft Sea Foam.
Writing this post as I look at this plate of delightful goodies has made me realise how hungry I am. I could demolish quite a sizable portion of that plate!!
Now before I share, I must confess this is the second version of this card - the first got ruined when I dropped the opened Early Espresso ink pad onto the corner of the original project. It got thrown in the bin and thanks to the ever patient, Rose Packer, I was able to whip up a replacement in time to join the hop.
My card starts with a tent fold Whisper White card base. To this I have added a piece of Soft Sea Foam that has been embossed with the Subtle Embossing Folder and then cut down slightly before mounting to the base with fun foam.
The card front has had white embossing paste applied through the brick wall stencil and left to dry before adhering a rectangle, stitched frame - created by using two stitched framelits, one inside the other. I ripped the corners because that is what I tried to do to rectify the "ruined project" and quite liked the look of it, so replicated it here.
A piece of Early Espresso card has been die cut with the branch thinlit from the Seasonal Layers Thinlits. To this Granny Apple leaves were fussy cut and adhered with Tombow. A few Soft Sea Foam flowers created using the Lovely Flowers Edgelit Dies have been added with Pearl embellishments placed in the centre.
Here is my card featured with one of my Hand Made Cold Process Soaps. The recipient loves Sandalwood so she gets this delicious smelling creation to accompany her handmade card.
