RIC#90 & Muse #129

Hello there!



I was happy to have some crafting time today and ended up with a couple of cards ready to share. This first card is inspired by the Runway Inspired Challenge #90 and this sweet dress.





A number of small flower & leaf images from a variety of stamp sets were used to create a floral pattern on a white doily before a die cut sentiment was added. The sentiment was cut three times for added dimension, with the dark green bottom layer offset slightly and the top yellow layer covered in glossy accents for a little shine. The lightest gray Soft Stone card base gives a subtle contrast to the white doily.

This second card is inspired by Anita's card for Muse #129.




I followed her design very closely, using two Tim Holtz stencils to create a pattern on the white panel. The burlap stencil is place diagonally on the panel and partially inked with Tumbled Glass Distress Ink, then the Dot Fade stencil is placed diagonally the other way and inked with Mustard Seed Distress Ink.




A PTI die cut provides the popped up sentiment.




The panel is adhered to an Aqua Mist card base.

Thanks for stopping by,

Jacquie
