Hello and Welcome! Today I'm joining Freshly Made Sketches #544 and also NBUS #40
I really liked this sketch and found it easy to work with.
I had recently purchased a new stamp set, (Your Zest Life - Catherine Pooler) and the matching dies. So I got it out along with another piece of new designer papers from Paper Studio and went to work on my card.
Card stock, Daffodil Delight, Night of Navy for the strip & Basic White. (SU)
Designer Lemon Paper - American Crafts, Polka Dot textured paper -
Core-dinations.
Core-dinations.
Stamp Set - Live Your Zest Life - Catherine Pooler, Matching Dies
Ink Pads: Crushed Curry (for the lemon) and Memento Tuxedo Black. Versa Mark Pad
White Embossing Powder
Colored Pencils, Gamsol, Wink of Stella, White Gel Pen, Paper Distressing Tool (retired SU) and Foam Mounting Tape.
I
tried to get a picture of the shimmer from the Wink of Stella pen but
it's a bit blurry - you can still see some of the sparkle. Looks really
pretty in real life.
I hope you have enjoyed this card as much as I did creating it.
"live your zest life" I love that. The card looks great.
ReplyDeleteI do love it, I also love lemons and lemon zest on CAKES. beautiful
ReplyDeleteThis just makes me happy! Such a fun combination of colors and textures. I love the lemons and especially the sentiment!
