Okay, let me preface this post by saying that this card is NOTHING like what I envisioned when I sat down to start working on it...LOL! NOTHING!
This is my card for today's Caardvarks sketch and I was totally stumped for a color scheme so I decided to incorporate the Moxie Fab Challenge for this week (to use gradient color) and of course, purple is mega-hot right now so that was an easy choice for me.
The sketch has 3 squares on the left side of the card so I thought that this would be a great way to show off the new kit of the month incentive kit from Unity, Bitty Backgrounds. From there the style of the card just evolved into the card that you see here. The Mr&Mrs sentiment is one of the (MANY) stamps in this months Unity kit of the month, Go Ahead Wish. I love the elegance of it. It would be perfect for an anniversary or wedding card.
Supplies used:
*Unity Stamp Co. Bitty Backgrounds
*Unity Stamp Co. Go Ahead Wish
*Cuttlebug Embossing Folder
*Marvy Uchida square scallop punch
*Fiskars border punch
*purple twine
*StazOn Jet Black inkpad
*various cardstocks
Thanks for visiting today!!!
