I used Tilda with Christmas Tree for my image, colored with distress inks. I made my own sentiment on the computer and chose a dark brown for the color. The papers are DCWV. I did not have the exact color flowers I was looking for, so used my Copics Airbrush System to color my flowers. I stitched the edges, added some flowers and gem stones, and voila!
My first attempt at photographing this card, I did not have the pine cone on the sentiment. I came up with that idea after I took the photos, so stamped the pine cone and took the pictures again.
Again, I colored Tilda with Distress Ink, blending several colors to correspond with the paper.
I used the sketch from Friday Sketchers as the foundation for my layout. I actually found this sketch challenge, but love the result.
Thanks so much for stopping by today. Check back Saturday for another Sugar Creek Hollow card.
