I really liked the design of the card in yesterday's blog post, so I've used it again here, just tweaking it slightly. I embossed the top part of the card blank with white embossing paste using a Tim Holtz stencil. With another piece of cardstock I die cut a stitched rectangle & out of that a stitched circle, mounting it on the card base with 3D pads. A stamped sentiment & 2 die cut Chloe stems finish it off.
I entered a card on my blog the other day, here, into this week's 'Less is More' challenge but there wasn't really enough 'white space' on it to be classed as CAS. I think this one might be ok so I'm trying again!
Thanks for popping by & take care.

DeleteBeautiful!
ReplyDeleteThank you Linda x
DeleteThis is gorgeous TAmara, I love this Chloe die... and you have used it to perfection!
ReplyDeleteYou can actually make the top panel fit the front of the card exactly if you fancy to, by cutting part way from each end and moving the die along a little before the second cut to extend the length... I do it all the time!
Thanks so much
