Good Morning all, i hope you all had a good weekend.
Its time for a new challenge over at cardz4guyz, the theme for the next fortnight is:
RELAX
Searching through my stash i found this lovely image in an old LOTV art pad. I picked out the colours in the image of grey & blue.
A5 white cardbase. I found in my stash cardstock in a dark blue and grey for matting and layering and a few papers to co-ordinate too. I first die cut the image into an oval, layered onto bigger ovals of blue and grey. Onto the base card i layered up the papers, of setting the blue foliage ones. I added the topper with foam pads.
I then die lots of little leaves from the same papers picking up on the branches in the image. I arranged them around the topper. I found a scrap of card in yellow/peach and die cut lots of little birds. I went with that colour for the birds to stand out against the dark colours and also it picks up on the images skin tone.
I then die cut the sentiment in white and blue, added the blue as a drop shadow and added to the bottom of the cardfront. Left over leaves and birds to finish.
Close up of the topper, this shows the colours a bit better.
