Just a quick post tonight to share a card I made yesterday for 2 challenges. The evening got away from me, so I had to wait until tonight to post. Those weekends go SO fast.
I made this card for one of my very special Aunts. I think she'll like it!
I didn't have any natural light to take these photos, so the burgundy looks a bit washed out. It's much richer in real life. I did a lot of layering and embellishing on this card. And it was fun. Lots of fun!
I'll list my supplies below. Gotta go.
Toodles!
Card stock: basic gray, naturals ivory, bravo burgundy, silver glimmer paper (SU)
Ink: smokey gray, onyx black (Versafine), cranberry crisp, basic gray (SU)
Stamps: BB:Postmarks, button boutique, love lives here-holiday (PTI)
Die: button card die collection (PTI)
Other: pewter stick pin (Jenni Bowlin), wine organdy ribbon, linen thread (SU), cream pom pom trim (from my stash), mini wooden spool (Maya Road), thread, scor-tape, foam tape, glue dots
So so sweet Susie!
