Hi there! Have you seen the fun, new Crafty Hugs release over at Simon Says Stamp? So many awesome products and designs. I’ve created a very simple, yet striking thank you card using some of the new goodies.
For the background I blended a soft layer of distress inks onto white cardstock using Twisted Citron, Cracked Pistachio, Mermaid Lagoon & Salty Ocean. Then using the new Geo Leaves stencil I added more tone on tone color for a soft, dreamy feel. I flicked some water, Salty Ocean and white ink onto the panel as well.
For the sentiment used the CZ Extra Large Thank You die with the some of the yummy new Holographic Cardstock. Oh my word, this paper is so cool! Might need a lifetime supply of this stuff. I layered the word die on vellum and popped it up over the blended panel. I added a few April Showers sequins for embellishment.
Check out the fun, new release HERE! Thanks so much for stopping by!
