I made this card for a senior who is going to retire very soon from my bank!
I am also entering this card to the following challenges:
2.Moxie Fab World: Happy for Hexagons Challenge
In terms of style, I think my card would fall in the category of Classy and Elegant as my card has shiny finish, rich color scheme, and layered textures.
Card Details
2.Stencils (both the hexagon and the flower) are by The Crafter’s Workshop.
3.A thin coat of gesso was applied over the stamped background to create a shabby chic look. Gold Embossing Paste was spread over the flower stencil to get the embossed gold flower.
After the Chinese Lunar New Year, I have been so busy that I haven’t got time to enter any challenges! I am so glad that I managed to made this card not only for a senior but also entered some challenges!
Lovely card, the background is really eye catching and the pop of gold texture paste is fabulous. Lovely clean design too. Thanks so much for joining in the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge. Tracy x x

ReplyDeleteHelen such a pretty background. Thank you so much for joining us at the Card Concept!
ReplyDeleteHi, Helen! Your card came after mine at The Card Concept. I was drawn to the gold embossing paste on your card -- definitely classy! I'm a one layer card kind of girl so your card makes me happy - awesome to create all those lovely textures and dimensions on just one layer. Love it! And I'm glad to "meet" you!
