Make a wish in Old Olive and Blue Bayou


Ok so I can definately see another theme creeping in here with me again. It is safe to say I must be over my Bashful Blue and Real Red phase, and heading fast into my Old Olive stage. I seem to be using it in every project I make these days. Oh well, let's call it an Old Olive Showcase instead!

I have also been trying to challenge myself to make more masculine cards lately as well, so hopefully this one will pass muster.

Here are the materials I used;

Card Stock - Old Olive, Blue Bayou, Soft Sky, Whisper White
Stampin' Pads - Craft White, Blue Bayou, Soft Sky
Stamp sets - Big Bold Birthday
DS Paper - Spring Break
Ribbon - Whisper White grosgrain
Sponge daubers
adhesive
stampin' dimensionals

Techniques used;

Paper tearing
layering
Stamping off
Distressing with sponge daubers

If any of these techniques interest you or are new to you then let me know and I will put together a detailed description.
Or better still, book a workshop with me today and I will show you in person.

Enjoy!
