Trellis Card

Hello!

Today, I have a card to submit to a couple of challenges:
Emma's "My Creative Time" Thursday Designer Challenge and "Little Scrap Pieces," Fun Friday Fall Colors Challenge.

For Emma's challenge, you had to use 3 flowers plus bling on a layout or a card using brown, pastel yellow, and pastel blue. The card base and the brown ribbon looks very fall to me, which is why I also submitted it to Little Scrap Pieces challenge. Emma's flower requirement inspired me to make a background that resembled a trellis, and the vision only came halfway to fruition. :) I just started by adhering ribbon in a cross cross fashion.

Instead of having 3 flowers spread out, I stacked 3 flowers.



Materials on the outside of card:

  • flower layers: on the bottom I used Tim Holtz "Tattered Flowers," the middle is Emma's scallop and circle die (the scallop is stamped using Emma's Build a Banner Kit polka-dot stamp), and the top is Emma's rolled flower die.
  • a little iridescent gem in the middle of the flower
  • the sentiment is from Emma's "All Around Everything"
  • brown ribbon

Materials on the inside of card: 

  • blue cardstock to cover the brown ribbon that was criss crossed on the front.
  • flower layers: on the bottom I used Tim Holtz "Tattered Flowers," the middle is Emma's scallop and circle die (the scallop is stamped using Emma's Build a Banner Kit polka-dot stamp)
  • the sentiment is from Emma's "All Around Everything"
This was a very simple and easy card! Thanks for visiting me. Hope you have a wonderful week!

<3, Katie
