Duet

Hi everyone!

For my second card of the day, I’m playing along with the ‘double’ challenge at CAS Colours and Sketches using products kindly sent to me by Penny Black. This challenge combines colours AND a sketch… and can be quite tricky… but hey, that’s why they are called challenges, isn’t it?

For my card, I used the beautiful Duet die (51-736) and Airy die (51-423). I coloured them using regular distress inks and distress oxides and added them to part of a die cut circle.

I adhered the die cut cluster to a panel that I had embossed with the Variegated folder (65-008) and added a bow and sentiment from the Trust Me builder set (30-710) to complete my card.

(The challenge allows subtle texture as long as it doesn’t detract from the main focal point. I think my bold flowers stand out – hopefully the challenge DT agrees that this falls within their guidelines!)

Thanks for stopping by!
