I do hope you all are having a good weekend.
Today I am sharing a card made combining the Kraft Journal Challenge Sketch and JustRite's Autumn Splendor Challenge.
The ivory card base was made using the Kraft Journal's think ivory linen paper. The paper is wonderful to work with and is perfect for a card base. The ivory paper was cut using Spellbinders Timeless Rectangle. The Kraft sketch shows a small square over a vertical band. Well, I decided to change the sketch a bit by making it larger and putting it under the band...this change really accentuated the JR Lace Background stamp (stamped with ColorBox's MicaMagic in green and then embossed). TH distress inks in Scattered Straw, Spiced Marmalade and Red Barn was applied as shown. The circular die cut stack is as follows: textured gold linen paper die cut using Memory Box's Quinn Flourish, Kraft paper die cut using Spellbinders Stately Circles, ivory paper die cut using Spellbinders Big Scalloped Circles. JR stamp set Kindness provided the "You mean the world to me" sentiment. The leaves are Spellbinders Little Leaf Sets and the ivory twigs were cut using Martha Stewart's twig punch. Red gems were applied in the areas shown.
Thank you so much for stopping by and have a great week.
Hugs,
