The design team at Papertrey Ink has a team member from Ukraine - Svitlana Shayevich - who is so talented and is trying to cope with having parents, a sister and many friends still in Ukraine. The DT at PTI wanted to show their solidarity, support and love to these dear fellow crafters and create a card supporting them and their country!
I started by masking off a panel of Bristol Smooth Surface paper and sponging with Mustard Seed distress ink on one half and Prize Ribbon on the other half to represent the Ukrainian flag. The country's official flower is the sunflower so I went with layered dies from the Into the Blooms II die set from Papertrey Ink. I sponged with distress inks, added details with Prismacolor pencils and used foam tape between layers to add dimension. I added rain drop embellishments and ironically, thought I should call them tear drops instead. I've been very emotional thinking of the anguish that people in Ukraine must be feeling!
