My bloggy friend Anita, who I was fortunate to meet in person this summer, is this week's MUSE. She's also on the DT over at Less is More, so when I saw her card for MUSE, I thought I would also use the colour theme from LIM.
Here is my take on Anita's card.
Here is her fab inspiration.
For my interpretation, I used her idea of a stripped DP in the background as well as the die cut elements. I'm a little short on the leaf die cuts and had nothing like the fab one she used, so I used an evergreen bough instead and flipped the layout. I kept the vellum and pearl card die cut elements too for mine. Of course as the colours for LIM are Turquoise and Lilac I used a piece of stripped paper from NitWits. The sentiment was stamped and embossed in lilac and I added a piece of linen thread coloured with a Copic marker to one end of the banner. I used linen effect card stock for the top panel and base as it gave a subtle texture which with so much space was I thought necessary.
I'd like to join in over at -
and because I used the sentiment from their Doodled Flowers set
Fab CASE of Anita's card, Jules - I love the linen effect card stock which adds some great texture, and the Copic-coloured twine was a brilliant idea. Thanks so much for sharing with us at Less is More :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful and elegant card! Nice color palette ;-)
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice idea to turn the layout upside down.
Such a perfect CAS design! Thanks for sharing at Less is More!
ReplyDeleteJules your card is sweet. Very gentle and pretty colors. How fun to meet a "fellow" carder in person, I've made some lovely friends over the years too, through my creating.

Love that die cut and the soft pretty colours! So glad you joined us at Muse this week!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great design, I may borrow this, I have an unused feather die that has been staring at me for at least two years!! xx
ReplyDeleteoooh! Love how you've tipped Anita's Muse card on it's head here Julie and combined it with our colour combo for this week. CAS-tastic, crisp, elegant and gorgeous! Thanks for playing along with us at Less is More and great to catch up with you again last weekend. Hugs Sarah x
ReplyDelete...and I was super fortunate to meet you too, Julie! And wow, I love your take on my card. Changing the orientation was a great idea and I love that evergreen die cut, I think we are always going to have die envy aren't we! Great little touch of turquoise too to tie in with the colour challenge.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for playing along at Muse and Less is More, Anita xx
Wonderful interpretation of Anita's card. I like how you've rearranged Anita's design.
