Thank You for CTS85 and CMCC29

Just popping in with a quick card that I made last night.  I was too tired once I was done to get my post scheduled and I nearly forgot to do it this morning.  I've got loads of errands to do today so this will be short and sweet.

I really liked the nearly monochromatic colors at Colour Me and I thought they'd be perfect with this flower and leaf combo from Altenew.  I added in the sketch at CAS(E) This Sketch and this is what I came up with.



Once again I added some Crystal Effects to the center of the flower (so glad I remembered that I had this stuff).  I'm sure you can't really see it in the picture but it really adds a fun little spot of shine.

That's it for me.  I'm off to do some running around, then I hope to spend some quality time in a lounge chair on the patio!  Thanks for stopping by!

Supplies:
Stamps:  Off the Grid (SU); Hennah Elements (Altenew); Botanical Silhouettes (Papertrey Ink)
Paper:  Classic White (Flourishes); Express-It Blending Card
Ink:  Black Licorice (My Favorite Things); Island Indigo (SU); Copics
Accessories:  Collectible enamel dots (My Mind's Eye)

  4. I love the way you can combine grungy with elegant - and this is a perfect example. The grid background really frames that beautiful flower so well. I finally found that Altenew set in stock at SSS and ordered it yesterday. Can't wait!
