I bought this sentiment from Kat Scrapiness some time ago and never got around to using it for some reason. I created the background with a MFT Equalizer stencil and some purple ink and then die cut the shadow of the word with purple cardstock. I added a few purple gemstones and that's all this card needs. The large sentiment speaks for itself!
I'll share this with the following challenges:
A brand new challenge called Word Power #1 - make the sentiment the focus of the card
January 2024 Stencil Fun - A/G using a stencil - *optional birds
NBUS #58 - never before used schtuff (word die)
Here in the east we're expecting snow/rain for today so it will be a good day to stay warm inside and work on crafts. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a great day.

This is a great background for that fantastic die cut sentiment. Happy New Year and blessings to you and your family. Thank you so much for visiting my blog and all your wonderful comments over the last year. I truly appreciate you taking the time.
ReplyDeleteI love those big sentiments and this is a good one. That is a pretty background for it too. The news is showing a lot of snow coming your way so stay in and be safe. We got snow overnight but not much. It looks beautiful on the trees.
ReplyDeleteThat's a lovely card, great die, too. Love the colours. No snow here but it's very cold, I'm staying home and playing today! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteThe large sentiment works very well with the stencilled background
ReplyDeleteA fantastic card for our new challenge Carol, and beautiful stenciling underneath!!

I love this fun, bold sentiment against that pretty sponged background! The purples are definitely a "Carol card"! Love the font of your diecut sentiment and the added gems! These diecut sentiments are so trendy right now and growing on me! Love this card, Carol! It rocks, my friend! :)
ReplyDeleteFabulous card and my favorite color, great stenciling and sentiment!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely brilliant use of the equaliser stencil behind the focal sentiment! YOU rock! xxx
