Today is
Papertrey Ink's monthly Blog Hop. The colors in this months inspiration photo are two of my all time favorite. You just can't go wrong with black and green.
For my card I used
this sketch from Freshly Made Sketches from a couple of weeks ago. For the longest time I never used sketches...what was I thinking?? Talk about taking some stress out of the process.
You can kind of see the argyle embossing on the black paper in the photo. I attached the black cardstock to my card using my
dots and the oval is attached with foam tape. I love using both because it adds so much dimension to my cards.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day. I'm off to check out what everyone else has been creating.

ReplyDeleteI found the embossing on the black when I shielded the glare from my computer screen (my computer is in the kitchen, where it is very bright.) A super interpretation of the sketch. I especially love the big oval, it's a big statement! Love your blog, too.
