All Kinds of Crafty

Happy Thursday and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Krew Thursday Blog Hop! Today, the challenge is a color challenge. I decided to use the Thinking of You Bundle to create a simple card for today. I always like when the DSP and die cuts do all the work!

These were the colors for this challenge. I chose to use Pecan Pie, Night of Navy and Azure Afternoon for my card.

I started with a Night of Navy card base and added a Country Woods DSP mat that has a touch of Pecan Pie in it.

I die cut two Thinking of You backgrounds with Night of Navy and Basic White cardstock and the Thinking of You inside die with Azure Afternoon cardstock. I used liquid glue to add the Azure Afternoon sentiment to the Night of Navy background. I used dimensionals to add it to the Basic White background so it was a little off center.

I created two swirls with linen thread to add to the card front before putting the sentiment on the center with more dimensionals. Finally, I added five Gold Adhesive-Backed Dots.

For the inside of the card, I added a mat of Azure Afternoon cardstock. I stamped a sentiment on Basic White cardstock, added a strip of Country Woods DSP and also used a cute cluster of flowers from the new Timeless Celebrations stamp set.

For the front of the envelope, I stamped Thinking of you using Azure Afternoon ink in the bottom, left corner.

And added a strip of Country Woods DSP to the envelope flap.
