 | | I've been working on and off on this card all day! I loved today's inspiration site and was inspired by this Limoge Box Bonzai Plant in Asian Planter. I didn't have time to make cards for all the challenges today, so I'm combining! The Love Fest Challenge today is to Bling it on, using bling or metallics. I didn't get a chance to make a card yet for the Mixability challenge which was to take text on white and add at least 3 reds. I started by finding some Japanese text and printing onto glossy card stock. I then used the Polished Stone technique and 3 red reinkers along with some gold to add the bold color to my panel. I stamped my bonsai tree onto glossy as well and embossed with black detail ep. I then filled my aqua pen with alcohol and dipped into my ink pads to color the tree....lots of fussy cutting later...I used dimensionals to adhere it to a brushed gold oval. I used some more glossy white and embossed my sentiment in black ep. I added an accent from a piece I picked up at a thrift store. I threw a couple more red gems to tie in with this accent piece. Finally, I typed (bonus points for me!) my word onto a tag from a pair of pants. I backed this with black and notched the ends. I added an eyelet in black and a gold brad and at last called it all done! |
