Hello! I wanted to pop in with a quick post, a card necessary for a sweet neighbor who's undergone surgery and now facing chemo. I have to be honest, I made the card and then looked at the challenges to see if it'd fit any, as I didn't want them to change what I had in mind for her card. My picture lighting could've been better... Here's my card ~
I blended DOX in Spun Sugar, Picked Raspberry and Wilted Violet, my first in using DOX. I wasn't sure I'd do well so I used a small piece of cardstock, but ended up liking it. Then stamped and heat embossed the image; while also heat embossing the sentiment on vellum. Before attaching, anything I spritzed it with Shimmer Mist. I attached the sentiment and then attached the small panel to the base and added a few sequins. Here's a close-up, hopefully showing the shimmer ~
I will be entering this over at CTD #591 (since my colors matched) and NBUS #14 because the image is NBUS, although new to me :o)
Supplies:
Alt - Leaf Canopy (NBUS)
PTI - Beautiful Blessings
I've had a busy weekend, but hope to get caught up on my visits! See you soon!
Hugs,
TK

This is beautiful, TK! I love how you've blended the colors and sprayed with sparkle! The leaf is simple and a beautiful way to let your neighbor know you are thinking of her and praying for her.
TK, the shimmer is really beautiful! I know that NBUS is bound to become a favorite in your craft room - it sure is in my own!

That is beautiful and the shimmer and colors look wonderful. I like the addition of the sequins too.
I'm glad you did the close-up, TK, because the shimmer is sensational! I love the simplicity of the design which really makes the ombre coloring pop! Take care and keep safe and thank you for sharing at NBUS! I hope your neighbor's fight against cancer is successful! Hugs, Darnell
