Hello

Here is the last card I colored in preparation for my trip to California. I wanted to keep posting while I was away.  This is my card for the September CCC, I mailed it very early and it should have arrived by now.

2015-09

I used the sketch (kinda sorta) my leaves were a bit bolder than I probably wanted them to be...but you can see the sketch in my card.


The hello and the flower centers are coated with wink of stella glitter then covered over with glossy accents for some dimension.  Difficult to see on the leaves but there are random small drops of glossy accents on them as well. I wanted the sentiment to be translucent, and I think it was achieved.  The flowers come from to older Hero Arts sets, the leaves are a Simon Says Stamp stencil, and the greeting is a fabulous set from WPLUS9.

I am betting by the time this posts, I will be missing my craft room quite a bit; but sad that I'll soon be saying until next time to my Dad. 

Thanks so much for stopping by.

I know the recipient loved getting this beauty, Cat! Fun use of the sketch! Always good to get home but I know it's hard to say goodbye to your dad & be so far away from him. Have a safe trip, my friend.
