Yet again I find myself at the mercy of Mr Linky...only a few hours left on the Dynamic Duos challenge which I've combined with the textured challenge over at The Card Concept:
Not the best pic I'm afraid as it's late. I used an Anna Griffin embossing strip but I left the top strip smooth in case I want to put a sentiment there at a later date. In between each embossed strip, I stamped a Waltzingmouse dotted strip to add a little detail. I guess I could have added more but I wanted the embossing to be the main feature since the Card Concept challenge called for texture. What style is it? I think I'll define it as 'classy and elegant!'
Have a great night!

Claire your card is just gorgeous. I love those embossed strips and how you've broken up the white with the little border stamp from My Kind of Guy. The swirl and butterfly are simply delightful. Definitely Elegant and Classy !!!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea to leave the area blank for a possible sentiment at a later date - though it looks great as it is too !!!
It totally is Classy and Elegant!!!! I think it is beautiful...Love the pink flourish...that is a die I just have to get...nothing is more classy and elegant than a beautiful flourish. That border stamp from WM looks so much like lace trim to me too! Great job nailing Classy and Elegant!
ReplyDeleteJust lovely Claire! That little touch of b/w between the emboss is striking. The pink flourish is perfect!
