Wow! It's been a while. Things have been crazy and I have been VERY neglectful of my little blog :( I promised myself I would spend more time crafting and sharing this year, so hopefully I will share more often.
Today I have a card to share that I made for the Papertrey ink blog hop. The challenge was to create a card with a black background.
When I started this was NOT what I was going for, but it is what I ended up with so I'm going with it, lol! :) Hopefully I'll find some time to finish the first one.
I covered a two pieces of black card stock with a Nesties die, and created a card base. I covered the front with score tape (before I die cut it), and covered the surface with black glitter ritz . I heat embossed another piece of black card stock with stitches and swirls using clear embossing powder and die cut it using the smaller die. I attached it to the base with foam tape. The flowers were die cut using PTI felt in Raspberry fizz and true black. I layered the flowers and added a clear Swarovski crystal to the center. I die cut a banner with the photo finishers die and stamped the sentiment from damask designs with smokey shadow ink.
Thanks for stopping by :)
