Flocked, Layered, and Popped

Photo Details

Poster: Itsapassion

This is my card for this week's DDC and Color Challenge!

Francie (aka Francie G.) of DDC fame hosted the DDC Challenge this week and her "Dare" is to make a card with 4 layers and ribbon or cord. The Color Challenge is to use neutrals in your layers and add color in the image to make them pop!

I used DCWV La Creme mat stack for this. It's been a LONG time since I've had to fight the urge to hoard something and not use it, I just love this mat stack!!

The pop of color comes from the bow around the vase and red cupped sequence from Cartwrights Sequins and Beads.

TFL!

p.s. There's more to see on my blog! Come visit!

I'm impressed! I am not a fan of sequins but how you used them has certainly changed my mind. Actually I like everything about this card.
