Mmm quite challenging! Well it's good to push your creativity from time to time. Here's what I came up with:
I couldn't get the idea of that wavy strip being a landscape hill out of my mind and started my card by handcutting and then embossing a card strip. I placed it down on my card background and then spent some time looking and wondering where to go next.
Well it turned out to be a sunrise at the top and a butterfly and sentiment at the bottom. I kept my colour scheme very simple, just adding a matching coloured trio of enamel dots round the sentiment.
Supplies:
Stamps: SU, Kinda Eclectic
Inks: SU, daffodil delight, pumpkin pie, real red
Punch: Martha Stewart, butterfly
Embossing: Cuttlebug, swiss dots
Embellishments: Simple Stories, So Rad enamel dots
This sketch has got me really excited as I know you're all going to have amazing ideas about how to use it. And so did my CC&S teammies - go check them out here.
Huge thanks for visiting my blog today, I really appreciate your time. And keep crafting!
I love the sun peaking out . It really gives a great effect.
ReplyDeleteHave to admit that it challenged me too!! Love the sun - did you rock and roll to get the different coloured tips?
ReplyDeleteAwesome idea Jane and very inspiring. I'd not thought about adding texture and the landscape/sunrise really pairs well with the sketch. CAS perfection too. Hugs Bev x
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely sentiment, Jane. Love the fun way you have the sun peeking from behind the embossed panel!
