Welcome to my blog.
It's a CAS card today. This was made very quickly but I did spend some time thinking over how to use the flower in the card!
I have a chrysanthemum stencil which I used to outline on a black paper, then using water color pencil did some shading. After that I was totally confused, how to use this panel. Finally I mounted this on a bright pink card stock and added glitter foam strip at the top and bottom layer.
I liked how it turned out but still felt something is missing, finally giving up on the thought of adding any other element.
Entering into following challenges.

Very eye catching! I like how you used a stencil to create the image - a creative way of achieving that focal point. Black and pink are a great combination :)

Super make, I like it as it is but, if you still think something is missing then PERHAPS a small sentiment

Such a clever way to use this stencil, and the black background is such a great choice!
ReplyDeleteBlack is a color to make anything look good, I am a big fan of black, and your stencil use has come along so well.
