summer colors...

It was very cold this weekend.  As in, sweaters and socks... sigh.  I'm digging in my heels and crafting in the colors of summer.  Right after I created this card, I started sewing together a garland of felt leaves... I can't help it - I love fall decor, even if I'm against the cold weather :)


I used versamark ink to create the different tone-on-tone backgrounds, and then swiped white ink around the edges to tone it all down just a bit.






supplies:
stamps (all PTI): polka dot basics II, background basics: vines, flower fusion #4, flower fusion #6 (sentiment)
ink: versamark, chocolate chip (SU)

    This is so cheery. Love the color blocking. The details, like the scalloped border and stitching make the card that much more interesting.

    Very pretty. I love the edging work in particular. So effective. The soft focus effect is just perfect. The colors are captivating too....not to mention the wee scalloped border. Love. Gorgeous card Elena.
