A Little Something Earthy


Creating a card that's both floral and completely earth-toned can present a challenge, but I quite like the overall look of that kind of neutral-on-neutral theme. Here I've used Chocolate Chip card stock for the card base, then layered Creamy Caramel card stock for both of the next two layers. The first layer was sponged with Creamy Caramel ink to help distinguish it from the top layer, which was cut using the Top Note die in the Big Shot personal die-cutting machine. I used a selection of flowers from the Itty Bitty Buds stamp set, stamped in Whisper White, Close to Cocoa and Creamy Caramel inks, then finished the layer with a sentiment from the Yummy stamp set inked in Chocolate Chip. A quick taffeta bow adds a touch of shimmer to this very earthy card...
