washi flowers...

 Hello!  Popping in with a card that was super quick to put together thanks to some pretty flowers die cut from washi tape.  I have my friend, Greta, to thank for the washi flowers.   She had purchased the Painted Fantasy washi tape and the dies that can be used to cut the washi from Altenew.  I  had purchased the Calming Bouquet washi tape from Altenew and so we did a swap!   This card will be heading to Freshly Made Sketches, as well as the Altenew monthly inspiration challenge.   The inspiration photo for the Altenew challenge features bold flowers against a dark blue background.  I did incorporate the dark blue color into my card by die cutting the banner element from dark blue cardstock.   I adhered the washi tape flowers with foam tape to the banner and then added the banner to a white cardstock base.  The sentiment is from the Trigonometry stamp set.  I stamped that on a white banner strip using VersaFine CLAIR Nocturne ink, trimmed down and adhered to the card front.  Love how quickly this card came together!  Decided to add this to the Flower Challenge to put a sentiment on it.






Thanks for stopping by and have a lovely day!
