Happy Thursday, everyone...on the downhill slide to the weekend! My card today is for the FMS597 sketch as well as the Color Throwdown 754 color palette:
I had some pretty papers from Carta Bella called Gather at Home that had a lovely succulent pattern on it, so that was my starting point:
I diecut a piece of the paper and mounted it on a Crumb Cake card, then diecut some leafy pieces from Soft Succulent cardstock with the Dainty Delights dies. I used a blending brush to color each branch to try to match the colors on the papers. I adhered a partial circle of vellum behind them to make them stand out a bit. My horizontal sentiment is from Timeless Arrangments, and my vertical pieces are some Burlap Ribbon and Wavy Trim:
I left the inside blank; I think this pretty sentiment could be used for any number of occasions!
Here are a few more birthdays card I was blessed to receive this year:
This little beauty is from my friend Peggy:
And little pup is from Renita---so cute!
And Debbie created this bright cheerful card for me:
Thanks, Peggy, Renita & Debbie! I love these cards! And thank YOU for visiting today--enjoy it and be blessed!
