Cool green ferns p.Paper showcased in a dark green stitched frame die with an offset cream frame underneath. Word diecut "thanks" stacked and top layer painted with pearlescent watercolour gold. Gold pearls. Set on a cream card base.
I find monochromatic cards more difficult to make because they can end up quite flat looking and need a bit of something to set them off like metallics ...

The die that frames your ferns has so much interest, Carol. Thanks for sharing your green card with us at Just Us Girls.
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely effect from the frame and papers , it reminds me of looking outside through a rain washed window onto a lush green garden, the touches of gold lift the design beautifully. Thank you for joining us at Crafty Catz.
