TLC416 I Need Blue!
Added to Favorite
xxxx

Photo Details
Poster: Cook22

 I need blue - we have just had grey sky so much. I was determined to fit some blue on my card today:D.
A2 base, yellow layer and lacy border is BG Picadilly. Blue layer is BG Lily Kate. I embossed it with Sizziz Retro Circles and sanded. Good thing I was going for a distress look because no way could I have trimmed it down and kept perfectly straight edges - between the embossing and the sanding it was pretty brittle. I used an un-embossed trimming to stamp my butterfly, sponging some deeper blue round the edges and adding Liquid Pearls. Die-namics Fax Crochet has an edging of distressed green card.
For the image layer I gessoed some book paper, then stamped Oh So Lovely, cut with Mega Ovals and coloured with H2Os and distress inks, and sponged with distress inks.

Absolutely beautiful, Sabrina! Love the embossed and sanded layer... it gives the illusion of a sky filled with cirrus clouds!

Sabrina, the EF you chose really made for a lovely bg. Your card is so pretty with the floral image and butterfly as the main focal point.

Your embossed layer turned out so pretty!! I love it! The flower on top of the book paper looks awesome (don't you just want to use gesso on everything?)...wonderful card!!!!

Fabulous card! Love that blue background and I agree- way too many gray skies! This looks so soft and feminine! Love that splash of yellow in your trim!
