.....Is Hard To Find!

Good afternoon!

Today's card will be entered into the Challenges at; Stamp TV, Grey Is The New Black, Simon Says Wednesday, Anything Goes, Scrapy Land # 92 and Crop Stop Party # 40.

I created a wood grain background using Moonlit Fog card stock which I scored every 1/2 inch.  I then swiped Dove Grey and White ink all over it.  I then cut out a spot for my sentiment using a Spellbinders Standard Circle die.  I placed a piece of white card stock behind my wood grained panel and stamped my sentiment in Raven Black ink. Layered the 2 and adhered it all to my In The Navy card base.

Sentiment and flower stamps and dies by Gina K Designs, Sentimental Summer and Wreath Builder.  I used the MFT Blueprints 12 Banner die and cut 3 banners in different Designer Papers, staggering them on the left.  Flowers stamped with Daffodil Delight ink and outlined with Dove Grey.  I also stamped the leaves in Dove Grey giving them a different look.

Yellow and Grey Enamel Dots for accents.

Foam Squares to pop up the small flower for dimension.
