Morning all!
Now that I’m back from my jaunt to Cornwall for a family wedding and holiday time, I’m back joining in with the weekly Daring Cardmakers challenges.
So the elements I went with were the peach and aqua tones, the actual peach fruit, and a tiled design:
Paper: Crate Paper – Maggie Holmes – Woodland Grove, Carta Bella – Flower Garden (r)
Stamp: The Stamp Market – Just a Note (r)
Dies: The Stamp Market – Just a Note (r), Hello Bluebird – Pine Boughs (r), The Stamp Market – Scalloped Window Frame, The Stamp Market – Stitched Shaker Windows
I started out by covering my card base in the peach patterned paper from Crate Paper’s Woodland Grove collection by Maggie Holmes.
It’s a very busy paper design, so I wanted to create a way to make the sentiment stand out more.
Enter the Scalloped Window Frame from The Stamp Market. I had a small piece of Carta Bella paper that just about fit this die and featured a tiled line pattern similar to the tiles in the image.
I mounted the window frame on a Stitched Shaker Window frame, also from The Stamp Market, just to make the transition between layers smoother.
I kept the peach theme by stamping the Just a Note sentiment on the coordinating shadow die in peach ink.
Finally, I needed a little contrasting accent to finish off the card, so I cut the bow die from Hello Bluebird’s Pine Boughs set using scraps of Concord & 9th cardstock in peachy tones.
And there we have it, card finished!
Make sure you check out the projects from the rest of the design team here, and play along if you can!
Happy crafting!
