Just swinging on in to share a card! I saw the current The Card Concept challenge and thought I'd give it try! ;)
Here's what I came up with!
I went with a very soft CAS card. When I saw the photo, Wplus9's botanical bunch set came to me, and what better timing because I just got it the day prior. ;) Rather than inking my stamp in black, I went with using Hero Arts shadow ink in soft granite. After, I did some coloring. I layered my die cut sentiment three times and added a hint of pink to the bottom of it. (that may be hard to see?...) Simple and sweet, yeah?...
*Note: Here I go again about my photo! lol Seriously, I don't think it's a horrible photo. But now I seem to think my photos are looking 'grainy'?...Maybe to much editing on one part or time for a new camera?!...Well, I'm going with 'time for a new camera'! See, I've been working with the same camera for many, many years. Nothing fancy, which I happen to like because I'm not the best with gadgets and stuff. Though, I'm behind in as far as megapixels go...I could use something with more of them. So, I started 'hinting' (more like complaining) to my husband about it and well, he bought me a new camera!...For my birthday! lol My birthday's not until April!...I told him, I'll wait. (though, we'll see how that goes.) ;)
Thanks for stopping by!
Enjoy your day!
So soft and sweet! Love the pastels!
ReplyDeleteSo soft, subtle and just a perfect take on the inspiration photo Shelly!
ReplyDeleteThis is very soft and pretty!! Love the die cut sentiment floating over top too! :) I've been having the same issues with my camera as well. Not sure if I want to invest in another one at the moment, but I've had mine since about 2009ish and it's not a cheap one so it's hard to let go of it! :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card Shelly. Thank you for sharing with us at the Card Concept!
ReplyDeleteperfect take on the challenge.. those flowers are gorgeous and love how you added the sentiment.
ReplyDeleteSo soft and so pretty! Great call to ink the stamp with a soft color - black would definitely been to bold! Beautifully clean and simple, with a wee touch of depth in the layered sentiment! Be still my clean & loving heart!
ReplyDeletePS I hear you loud & clear on the picture taking issue! I'm sure that I spend more time editing my photos than actually creating the card! So frustrating at times! Hope the new camera helps :)
Gorgeous card!! LOVE the soft colors!!
