Heartfelt


This card started with a challenge moodboard/colour scheme.  I don't usually work in these colours, don't even like them, so it was a HUGE challenge for me.   I do like the stuff in the picture though, so let that inspire me... and I do like the tone-on-tone effect.


I diecut the paper twice (it was double sided) and reconstructed it with opposite colours. Drew the strings in by hand. Stamped & embossed the sentiment in gold on vellum.


Balloon die: Poppy
Tag die: unbranded
Sent.Stamp: Hero Arts
EP: gold
Gold pen, sequins, vellum

    OK, but can we just agree....YOU NAILED IT! That's the great thing about a Challenge, right? I think this is a wonderful creation! The colors are perfect! Your heart balloons look great as do your hand drawn strings--well done! The embossing on Vellum always makes for a pretty sentiment--I do it all of the time! This is really wonderful. Thanks so much for playing along with us at The Double D, Hearts Challenge, Donna, DT Member.
