Anyway, about the card, it's actually stamped on a soft stone colored card stock, using grays and avocado inks. Some of them were stamped off, so there's a bit more depth to the foliage. The sentiment is stamped in dark gray and the whole thing is matted with charcoal gray and avocado card stock. The card base is the soft stone again, even if it does look funky white. It's so gray and rainy here today, it's simply impossible to get a decent picture, so please use your imagination. Thank you.
Even though there's been a lot of "stuff" to deal with so far this year, at least I'm getting some crafting time in and that's a good thing. Hope you're getting some crafty time, too.
Thanks for visiting my blog. This card is awesome! Love the colors you chose and I'm sure your sweeties uncle will love it....
ReplyDeleteWhat great colors...and I love how the stamped off flowers look...manly!
ReplyDeleteHey Mz. M! Thanks for the comments. I think foliage works ok for guys--flowers, ummm, not so much. After I posted this though, I worried that it looked a little too somber for a get well card. I keep trying on this masculine card thing and hoping eventually it will get easier.
DeleteTruly an elegant masculine card. Love the depth the second generation stamping created. The double matting really adds a special touch to your focal image. Sending you some of my sunshine...
ReplyDeleteOh boy--I'll take all the sunshine you can spare KellyRae! We're starting to wonder if we'll ever see the sun! Thanks for the sweet comments, too. They always mean so much.
