Today's card is super CAS and only took me a few minutes to make. :) Love when things come together so easily. I used a NBUS item from my stash that I've had for ages. This is the Wildflower Circle die (Memory Box), that I won for a challenge I entered a few years back. It somehow got lost in my die box! :)
I sponged three colours of Distress Inks (Mustard Seed, Ripe Persimmon, Wilted Violet) for the background sky and then added the Wildflower Circle on top. A simple sentiment, stamped with more Ripe Persimmon ink, finishes the card.

I'm also entering this card into the NBUS Challenge #65 - never-before-used-schtuff. First time using the circle die. :)
Thanks for stopping by!

ReplyDeleteSometimes the ones that come together are the best. This is stunning. Those vibrant blending colours look amazing with the white contrast. I have been trying to catch p with things after being away with my grandkids. It seems to be harder than I thought! xx
