Hello! Today I am sharing a CAS encouragement card created with Penny Black supplies.
-
- I stamped the 30-712 Words of Encouragement sentiment on to white cardstock.
- I inked cardstock with Distress Oxide inks and cut it with the largest triangle in the 51-647 Triangles set. I used the same die to cut a frame from black cardstock.
- I cut the 51-650 Viridescent leaves from black cardstock. Using the negative shape, I traced the leaves on to cardstock inked with Distress Oxide inks. I fussy-cut those leaves and glued them to the back of the outline. I trimmed the leaf stem to fit on the bottom of the triangle.
- I added the triangle with its frame and the leaves to the stamped panel.
- I embellished with a butterfly cut with one of the dies in the #51-132 Flights of Fancy set.
Quite dramatic.
The color combo is very exciting. Very clever to cut backings so you could have a different color for the leaves. The black just sets everything off!
Jean, this is an absolute stunner!!
