believe




I really like the challenges at CASology and The Card Concept (clean and layered) that end today,  so I made another card last night.  Luckily it also fits in nicely with the challenge that started today at Merry Monday!


                                       


I blended SSS Beanstalk Green across the center of my cardstock then spritzed with Heidi Swapp gold color shine.  It looks muddy in this picture but shimmers nicely IRL.  Then I made a bunch of banners using a PTI Sketched Shapes die.  I stamped the large circle image from the Sketched Shapes stamp set in 2 directions with Antique Linen DI over the kraft flags to get a burlap look then swiped the edges in Frayed Burlap DI.  The letters (Lawn Fawn Clarks ABC's) were stamped with Barn Door DI.  Those are layered onto the red flags using glue dots then mounted across the green (also using glue dots - it looks like it has a lot of dimension in the photo but it is actually quite flat).




Thanks so much for Looking!
Karen
