For our challenge at Inkspirational
this fortnight, we have a word prompt: Journey. You can interpret the
theme however you see fit, I chose a sentiment I love, because I think
it's so true.
I actually made 2
cards for this challenge. Sometimes I find it hard to choose what
direction to take, like should I go with the heart sttenciled background
or the striped die cut one? Well, I went with both. And if you don't mind, I'd love to hear your opinion on which one is your favorite:)
Please head over to the challenge blog to see the wonderful makes of my INK-teamies.
Card 1) Striped background
Here I used my Altenew die and black paper. I rubbed on some silver Nuvo expanding mousse and added white gesso on top once dry. Then I chose a blue striped paper and green ink for the sentiment, to macth the colors of the flowers, they came free with a magazine.
This card is also for Cardz 4 Galz - #152 Dies & Punches

Card 2) Stencilled hearts background
I used a stencil and gold Nuvo expanding mousse and I spritzed with Sangria Art Anthology mist. A pink paper was used for the panel to tie the colors together with the flowers and sentiment.

It's too difficult to choose between your cards Pia,they are both beautiful I love the way the background colours match those in the floral sprays
ReplyDeleteTwo beautiful cards Pia, beautiful flowers and a fabulous sentiment - like you say, so true. I like the striped background but I think the second background is my favourite.

Oh to choose..I think they are both fabulous! But if I had to I would select the first one as my favourite, only because of the colours. Very creative work. xx
ReplyDeleteHi Pia, just getting caught up with blogging and these two cards are a delight, both so pretty - I couldn't pick a favourite.

Two fabulous and equally beautiful cards Pia, I can not possibly pick a favorite!
ReplyDeleteTwo stunning cards Pia! I love the backgrounds and pretty flowers! I have to pick the first card as my favorite only because I love the blue flowers and green sentiment, two of my favorite colors.
