Today's professional development was on an emotionally heavy topic, so I decided to treat myself to a little card-making inspiration time. I checked my favorite crafters' blogs, completed a blog hop and came across a couple of challenges that looked like fun.
The colors for my project came from Color Throwdown. I started by hand painting (key word for they are crooked) some stripes in aqua watercolor. The pretty pink roses are W Plus 9's Handpainted Florals, and the lacy tone on tone die was cut using retired Verve dies. The sentiment is from Verve's Cake and Candles. The bottom panel incorporates the warm gray tone and also covers the more crooked portions of the stripes!
I am also entering this isn Paper Sweeties' Sixth Anniversary Celebration. The theme is: Birthdays! I would LOVE to win some of their amazing products.
Thanks for visiting,
Christine
