Hi, Friends.....
I am here with another white on kraft card for the MFP Speedy Fox and Friends challenge. I love the look of this color combination so much that I thought I would try making a wedding card with it....since I will have need of one of those next month for the son of some friends.
WOW! Embossing Powder - Opaque Bright White Regular. Love the fabulous clean white it gives me. I did the butterflies on the vellum with the same EP, too.
The background piece is from my DCWV Printed Burlap Paper Stack. Love the floral print with the "white on kraft" look that echoes my stamping. The burlap and the thrift store fiber yarn give just the right amount of natural texture for a rural Idaho wedding card. The thrift store lace adds a feminine touch. I mounted this all onto a textured eggshell white card base and then applied some adhesive pearls to help balance the design.
I was trying for a summer breeze blowing through an open window look with butterflies and flowers outside....that makes the oldie by Seals and Crofts - "Summer Breeze" go through (the jasmine of) my mind! I wish the white on white photographed better, but I love how the card turned out. Hope you do, too!!
Hope you are having a good week!!!

ReplyDeleteOh, this is exactly what your card looks like...a summer breeze blowing through the lace curtains! Those white embossed vellum butterflies are gorgeous and I am just going to have to steal this idea from you SOON! The kraft balances out all the white and is a wonderful contrast. Just gorgeous all the way around!
