Hi everyone. Another card for June's Group of Seven's Design Element - Monochromatic.
Simple CAS design all in shades of green on white card stock. Sponged Shabby Shutter Distress ink over the Flourish stencil (Tim Holtz), fading out towards left side of card front. Stamped Full Bloom (Penny Black) over top in Peeled Paint Distress Oxide Ink and added a simple sentiment: Many Everyday Messages - retired (Hero Arts) in the same ink to finish card.

Oh, my goodness, so beautiful and calming. Such a lovely artistic effect with the stamp and stencil. I'm stealing time to visit all your posts today, but sorry I can't linger to comment on all. What an inspiring visit. I'm eager to get back to card making, but home circumstances... Rich took a turn and was in the hospital. Now I'm needing to devote more time to him and home chores.
ReplyDeleteBeautifully designed with such an artistic flare. Got to love an easier card too. This one looks fun to do and love the color combination.
