Freshly Made Sketch/The Card Concept

G'day folks!

It seems ages since I did anything other than a CAS card but when I saw the latest Freshly Made Sketch I felt the need to create some layers!







I used the inspiration pic over that The Card Concept as a starting point - I love cream and black, so elegant and perfect for a wedding or anniversary card.  I used a script stamp from W Plus 9 and gold embossed some Winnie and Walter blooms onto some vellum. I then layered these over some cream card - the vellum has made them look a lot softer than in the photo. I really must improve my night time photography skills....

Yet again I'm struggling to put this one in a category - classy and elegant or clean and layered? Let's go with clean and layered.

Thanks for calling by!

Claire x

    Claire I really like this, gorgeous embossing and use of the script, I still think your style shines through although more layers than normal. A stunner and so pleased you joined the Card Concept with this stunner x
