go wild for a while

I’ve been debating whether to upload this card for a couple of days as I’m not sure I like it much. Anyway here it is and as the colour fits with the Birthstone image challenge at DD – May’s Birth Flower or Birthstone I am entering it there.

I used an EF from CTMH that I’ve had forever and then highlighted the lines with ink. This was then added to a slightly different shade of green and onto the white card front. The compass and sentiment come from an unbranded set and after it was stamped I coloured it with pencils and some Sakura pens. Using a StampinUP die I cut the frame and added it to the compass piece. I used a gold pen in each of the holes so they show a bit more. The sentiment was stamped and cut up before adding as you see. I didn’t quite get the placement right at the bottom, but it’s handmade so I decided not to worry about it. The bling is from my stash.

Thanks for joining me today, I appreciate you and your time.

  5. I am happy that you decided to enter this card in the challenge . I love the look of the green and the gold together. I love the antique look of the background. That sentiment is fun with your compass. Glad that you entered the double D Challenge. As wishes!
