Hi everyone!
Today's card uses more paper from ASB's exclusive new line, American Made. Using shades of brown, the light texture of burlap, and thick coffee flourish designs, this paper is easily adaptable to lots of different looks. I chose a "shabby chic" look for this card.
I used the dauber to apply Radiant Rain in Mediterranean Blue directly to the patterned paper, and then embossed an image from Inkadinkado's Birds Galore right over it. The result is dreamy, shimmery blue clouds.
I used my sponge and Tea Dye Distress Ink in certain spots on the patterned paper and the Prima flowers for a vintage look.
Vintage looking trim adds the final touch for a feminine yet not too sweet card.
Thanks for stopping by!
