The Card Concept #56

Hi There,

We have a new challenge starting at  The Card Concept. Our photo is very pretty and I was inspired by by the pink flowers in the tea cup and the touches of gold in the photo.

I made this 'Clean and Simple' card:


Here is our photo:



I heat embossed this flower on vellum and then coloured it using copics. I felt the flower expressed the delicate look of the tea cup. The gold strip was added as a nod to the gold picture frame.

You can create a card in any style you want and you can check out these styles here

This month our Guest Designer is the very talented Becca. She will be creating mixed media cards for us. Becca's blog, The Damsel of Distress, will be known by many of you but if not, pop over there and you will be inspired.

Have fun!
