Well, I'm not really distressed...just playing around with some Distress Inks for the brand new challenge over at Colour Q:
I've been doing lots of clean and layered cards recently so I thought I'd go for something a little more CAS this week. Blackberry Bliss is a funny old colour and I was struggling to find anything in my stash until I remembered some new Distress Inks I bought recently. I blended Seedless Preserves and Mustard Seed onto some saffron coloured, honeycomb paper by MME. I then stamped the Technique Tuesday images and added a grey sentiment from the same set - 'One of a Kind.' Nice and easy - sometimes I feel like I'm cheating when I do a 10 minute card!
It just so happens that this card fits in perfectly with the new cue word over at Casology too - don't you just love it when that happens?
Hope you get the chance to get crafty this week! Thanks for popping by,

ReplyDeleteThis is so moody (in a good way)! I'm not sure that's a word but I love the juxtaposition of the white textured background with the warm colors of your three little rectangles. The sponging is top notch and I love that the hexagon shapes have some highlights to perfectly show off the leaves in silhouette. Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteReally stunning Claire!
