Hey, hey, hey....
I love visiting blogs and finding new challenges to participate in. I found this challenge ( The Card Concept) to be different and unique, in that part of the crafting experience is labeling the kind of creation I have made...clean and simple, shabby, geometric, etc.
Here is the actual inspiration photo:

I just love this new stamp Dazzlers by Penny Black. It is great for focal points as well as backgrounds
Watercolored the background first with Memento Luxe Teal Zeal & Pear Tart. Heat embossed the "Dazzlers", then watercolored over them. Die cut greeting is a newbie from Simon Says Stamp.
So, I guess I will call this creation of mine....Classy & Elegant.
And while I am entering challenges today...this one is also going into the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge where Anything Goes.
Have a fantastic rest of your weekend and....
thanks for stamping by!

Awesome, Penny. That background is perfect for a sympathy card and shows off the dazzlers so well.
So pretty and elegant is your card Penny x
Beautiful! Love it!
May I ask what you used to get the stitched look around the edges? Thanks so much :)
This card has such a soothing and calm beauty about it!! If definitely would provide comfort to someone who had suffered a loss!! I love the die cut and how you double diecut it!! Just a marvelously done card!!!

This is beautiful - you really captured the feel of the Inspiration Photo!
LOVE that water colored background, Penny! The colors are subtle yet really show off your embossed images. Thanks so much for sharing with us at The Card Concept!
Hello :) I just wanted to swing by and say thank you so much for messaging me and letting me know what you used for the stitching look. Now I just need to find one as apparently they are no longer made or the stores in my area are just not carrying them. Fingers crossed I can find one :) Thanks again! Have a wonderful and blessed week!
