I needed a good luck card and got my inspiration when I saw this card by Michele of I Card Everyone.
The silver mat gives it a nice sparkle when the light catches it and I have used one of Michele's favourite techniques and debossed the green mat with a cover plate. Thanks for all the ideas Michele, I think your cards are fabulous.
I did make another card with this balloon die, with the intention of entering this months Twofer challenge, but after I had made it, I realised that although the two cards were for different occasions and looked quite different the design was almost identical! I will have to wait for another occasion to share that one.
Sharing this one at:
The Inspired by challenge - Lucky rainbow. I was inspired by green, lucky and glover
Supplies:
cardstock: Concord & Ninth Parsley; Silver sparkle paper; Stamping card
Ink: Versafine onyx black
Stamps: Sentiments, My Favourite Things and Uniko; Panda ?
Dies: Hero Arts Flower Confetti; Altenew dotted scales: heart balloon ?
