So today I thought I'd try a Basic Grey Challenge. Basic Grey is a scrapbooking paper company. They make beautiful paper. I went to Michael's and used my 40% off coupon to get a stack. I just love it! This stack is called Urban Prairie.
I am really happy with the way this card turned out-I just love it! I rarely use black...but decided to challenge myself today to try it. I'm not sure why but the picture really doesn't do this card justice....I think I NEED a light box so I can start taking better pics of my cards....
Anyways, here are the details for my card today:
The image is Tilda from Magnolia; and I colored her in with my copic markers.
I used my nesties to make the ovals, and my sizzix sizzlit to make the flourishes.
The ribbon sparkles and brads and CTMH.
The flowers are from my LSS.
I made the tag with my cricut.
I used this week's Friday Sketchers #36:
I had to kinda tweek it a bit to do the Basic Grey challenge # 19 too.
Which was a recipe:
2 patterned paper
3 brads
1 button
1 ribbon & bow
Thanks for looking!
