case study challenge 90

Thursday’s mean it’s time for another challenge from CASE study. Our muse this month is the fabulous Aga – did you love the dark and dramatic stunner of a card last week? Well we have a equally stunning card this week but a more muted and gentle beauty.

What really struck me with Aga’s card was the strong impact of the lower portion of the card with sentiment strip across. I chose to create the impact with a pop of coral card stamped with woodgrain in Versamark and a white sentiment strip. For the top part of the card I looked through my line stamps but couldn’t find anything I was happy with. In the end I went with one of my trusty Memory Box dies cut out of the white mat and inlaid with grey so that the die is flat with the mat.

    Wonderful card!! Love how you’re using the negative but, inlaying the color, looks fabulous and the bling is the perfect touch!
