This morning I'm posting with the Design Team for the Classic Design Challenge as we open the July challenge. This month we have two sponsors ~ The Paper Shelter and Fred She Said Digital Designs. Thank you to both sponsors!
For my project card, I selected the Daisies and Ladybugs from Fred She Said to make this card of encouragement.
I sized the daisies to about 4 1/2" wide and colored them with Copic markers. I fussy cut around the flowers and added a small vellum die cut flower in the center of each flower, then added the small dot of 'bling'.
On the A2 card base, I added the peach polka dotted paper at the top, and the yellow gold patterned paper at the bottom. I added the gold lace across the area where the two papers met. I added a wide piece of fun foam behind the fussy cut flowers and then added it at the top of the lace.
I stamped the sentiment from Sweet 'n Sassy, Timeless Hymns, trimmed close to the sides and die cut a decorative edge across the bottom. As I secured it to the card front, I tucked the top edge under the lace. Lastly I added the piece of tan twill at the card fold and knotted it just above the flowers. The gold thread in the center of the twill really sets off the yellow gold shades in the card.
I'd also like to mention that the papers and embellishments used were part of an 'envelope' challenge on one of my card swap groups. The hostess did a great job coordinating the papers for this challenge which made adding the flowers perfect for this design.
