Hi guys!
Today I have the great pleasure to be guest designing at CASology, woohoo! I won their "team" challenge with my card here and was naturally over the moon happy! Thank you everyone at CASology for this amazing GD opportunity!
The cue card this week is "soft"
My design defined is:
"Add interest to your CAS designs with texture and techniques: paper with soft velvet finish and extremely light stenciling used here”
So, what I did: I cut a square out of beautiful card that has dark brown velvet swirls on it -it feels so soft and nice to touch! I attached a Penny Black die cut flower on top of the velvet card using foam tape and 3d stickers -the card has lots of dimension which I also find adds interest to clean and simple designs. I stenciled a fish tail pattern very very softly to the card base to the top part of the card base, fading it out completely (I used an old make up brush for this) and stamped a greeting by Altenew. I hope you like my card, I think it turned out very soft and pretty! :) Thanks again for having me as guest designer, CASology
I'd like to enter:
( I think that swirly velvet paper is perfect for vintage look!)
