Hi there ~
I'm back with a quick post to share a card I created for this week's challenge at CASology ~ I have several 'Hugs' dies, but this one from PTI is my fave...
We are experiencing overcast skies today, so I apologize for the dark photo.
I started by stamping 'Sending' with Versafine Onyx black ink, and before I stacked the letters, I left the flower petals and leaves in one layer and colored them with Copics. I poked out the top layer for a clean look and added the B&W striped border.
Supplies:
Stamps and Dies: PTI - Big Hugs
Patterned Paper: MFT - Black and White Basics Paper Pack
Ink: Versamark Onyx Black
Copic Markers: RV25, YG07
Great CAS card! Love all the elements you used.
ReplyDeleteperfect card for this challenge and I can see why that PTI die is your favorite - the little flowers are so pretty with the b & w stripe - overcast and below freezing here - good day to stay inside and create!!
ReplyDeleteI have coveted that hugs die ever since it first came out! LOL! You've made a beautiful card with it!!
ReplyDeleteLove it, Barb ... I think this has to be the loveliest card I've seen with this hugs die ... the crisp white on white, the touches of black as contrast, and those oh so perfect tiny pops of colour inside the letters ... it's simply gorgeous! Hugs, Anita :)
