40

Sain tilauksen 40-vuotiskortista naiselle ja päätin käyttää siihen Altenew'n ihanaa Leaf Canopy -settiä. Embossasin lehdet kullalla ja väritin Altenew'n vesiväreillä. Korttipohjaan maskasin ja mustetin Distress Oxideilla tuon raidan, johon roiskin muutaman pisaran vettä, että sain sen vähän elävämmäksi. Kun roiskimisen makuun pääsin, roiskin vielä kultasuihkettakin korttipohjaan :D Lopuksi vielä FinnStamperin tekstileima ja Memory Boxin stansseilla numerot. Lehtioksat kiinnitin vain yläreunasta korttipohjaan niin, että alareuna jäi vähän koholle.

A friend of mine needed a birthday card for her female friend who's turning 40 and I made her this. I used the gorgeous 'Leaf Canopy' set by Altenew which I heat embossed in gold and watercoloured with Altenew watercolours. For the background, I masked the stripe and sponged it with Distress Oxide ink and added a few splatters of water to it to lift the ink. After that I added a few more splatters with gold spray to the background. I then stamped my sentiment ('Congratulations' in Finnish) and added the numbers (die cut with Memory Box dies). I attached the branches with strong tape so that the lower parts are free so they are loose from the background.

Haasteet/Challenges:
* Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Bling It On (there's a bit of bling from the gold heat embossing and the gold spray)
*Addicted to Stamps and More: Challenge #310 - Photo Inspiration (I was inspired by the yellow stripe, some of the colours and the little branch)
* Penny Black and More: September Challenge - Make It Feminine
* Happy Little Stampers: September Watercolour Challenge - Anything Goes (no twisting here)
