Hi there! I hope you're having a good weekend thus far! Today I made a card for two challenges - ColourQ and Freshly Made Sketches.
I still have a LOT of "newsprint" style designer series paper from years past, so when I saw the ColourQ challenge I was excited to use a piece of it. As it turned out, I ended up with a piece from the retired Modern Medley dsp with a reverse newsprint look that I absolutely love. Guess that's why I've held onto it.
I tried a few design ideas (colors, paper, focal point) before settling on this one after I found the background dsp. I love matching Bermuda Bay with black, and the added sparkle from the Glimmer paper really makes the sentiment pop against the white background. For some additional sparkle I covered the Flourish Thinlit die cut flower with clear Wink of Stella.

After all the layers were adhered to the base, I added some sequins, pearls and rhinestones.
I've added links above to both the challenges so you can hop on over there and enjoy all the beautiful inspiration. Thanks for visiting!
