I made this for a NZ cardswap where we had to make our own designer paper. The sentiment is meant as encouragment.
I used my gelli plate to ink (Distress Inks) and stamp over to make my own background to this card (also misted with Perfect Pearls), which I diecut using SimonSaysStamp squovals die. I also used same stamp to stamp on another piece of inky card spritzed with Distress Spray for the flowers, fussy cutting them and putting some under the panel as well as popping some up on the front. The sentiment is simply stamped. Gold metallic pen dots on the flower stamens and sentiment panel. Sequins added.
I like the effect of this arty looking card.
