Now I am not generally one to go out and just throw a card together. Mine need to be layed out, planned and really thought about. This one however was totally the opposite and I think turned out really well!
I used a basic green leaf patterned paper (from where I forget) and layered on, at an angle some pink handmade paper. I took a plain white piece of cardstock and cuttlebugged it with Cuttlebugs Script embossing folder.
Then came the clever (far me lol) part, I rubbed green chalk onto the writing. I had a nightmare trying to get it on with the silly little brush the chalk people provided so ended up using an eyeshadow brush! It worked wonders and didn't flake off into the white area either!
That was then layered onto the card and the excess chopped off, but you can see that, right? lol I then got two random flowers from the huge stock I have collected form fake flower dropoffs etc and made a brad to stick one down. The other I attached a butterfly charm to the tendrils and stuck it on using clear pop dots.
Lastly I used my Nestability scalloped ovals to make the sentiment holder, inked up my words and stuck it down using pop dots.
I really like this card. I might have to save it for me lol!
