Hey, all! It's time for another monthly challenge at Paper Sweeties, and Debbie has chosen some FABULOUS inspiration for us this month! Check it out...
I absolutely loved the all neutral color scheme, plus all the textures. I decided to be inspired by those things, and I made a shabby chic card--something I haven't done in a while! Take a peek at my card...
I started by making the jar. I used the Mason Jar stamp set and Mason Jar Sweet Cuts dies to do this. I added some paper piecing, some white twine, and a vintage looking button. I kept the colors all neutral--and I LOVE it!
To keep with the shabby theme, I added a doily and ribbons, along with some pearls and liquid pearl accents, underneath the jar. I once again kept the colors all neutral.
Lastly, I added some flowers--paper and resin. I added a few leaves for a bit of color, but still within the theme. You can see some of the faux stitching I did on the card, too. I used a black Glaze gel pen for a bit of shine.
After it was all put together, I added the panel to a kraft card base. I am SUPER DUPER loving this card! So glad I decided to try my hand at Shabby Chic style again! I hope you like it, too--please leave me a comment and let me know what you think!
Thank you so much for stopping by to take a peek! If you'd like to see more inspiration, join the hop and check out all the other gals' creations--you will NOT be disappointed!
