Clean and Simple....meet today's card.
I am playing along with the CAS challenge at Splitcoast this morning; make a monochromatic card.
So of course, blue came to mind immediately.
I stencilled the corner using Peacock Feathers Distress ink being sure to saturate the edge with more colour and fade out as I got closer to the top. I stamped the flowers from PTI and the sentiment from Daisy Bucket using black Memento ink.
The card needed something at the top. I added a strip of washi tape and tied the twine on top of that. I like how it all worked together. I rounded the bottom edges and mounted that onto my card.
I am adding my card to these challenges:
Simon Says- ANYTHING GOES
Virginia's View- CLEAN SLATE

Supplies: stamps- Daisy Bucket, PTI/ Distress ink/ washi tape/ Memento ink/ Corner rounder/ half pearls/ stencil/ twine
