Hello, and Happy New Year! Today's card was created for the latest Color Throwdown card challenge. To create my card I started by die cutting a piece of dark olive cardstock using Gina Marie Designs nesting scalloped rectangle dies. I adhered that directly onto my white A2 card base. I then die cut a piece of watercolor paper using Paper Rose nesting stitched rectangle dies. I stamped the image from Unity Stamp Company's Pure And Simple stamp set using Versafine ink. I stamped the happiness sentiment from the same stamp set right below it. Using Papertrey Ink's Simple Alphabet, I stamped the rest of the sentiment. Using Unity Stamp Company's Scallops & Banners die set I die but a few fishtail banners using more of the olive cardstock and a piece of patterned paper from Authentique's Remembrance 6x6 paper pad. Using Tim Holtz distress inks and some watercolor brushes I picked up from Hobby Lobby, I water colored the image to match the colors of the card challenge. To finish of the card I added Nuvo glitter drops in white blizzard to the snow around the image. Thank you for visiting my blog today. If you like my card, please be sure to leave a kind word. I read, and appreciate, them all!
