careful with candles

https://colorhuesthecolorchallenge.blogspot.com/

This slimline card uses an Elizabeth Craft die which I sponged with the challenge colours. Inspiration came from something seen on Pinterest which gave me an idea. I created the words on my computer and printed them onto Vellum which I then cut to fit the signs. To add them I used Distress Collage medium. The background was created using a metallic pigment ink from Scrapbook.com and a tiny candle stamp from an incentive set by GKD. I added some clear heat embossing over the candles, and sponged the edge of the layer to give it some colour. The base card was also sponged around the edges so that it would match those used on the sign. I popped up the sign with foam and adhered it as you see. With a few embellishments added the card was complete.

A simple card but I kind of like it. Thanks for popping in to take a look. I appreciate it.

    1. Thanks a lot Gayle – I saw something on Pinterest that was one of those panels with inspirational words and I thought the idea would make a good card. This is the result and the die is fairly new and I had been wondering how I might use it.

    1. I got the idea of using the collage medium from Natasha Foote who uses it exclusively on all her cards as adhesive. If you smooth it on the back of vellum with your finger it doesn’t show when dry. Glad you like this effort.
