Card 4 Bliss

Hi, this is my card design for this month's Artisant Blog Challange with Aneta.

I have named this, Card 4 Bliss.

Using the colours from the challenge, stamps from Sue Wilson, Justrite and Waltzingmouse. A background stencil from Clarity Stamps. And die cuts from Spellbinders and Tattered Lace. Some colouring in with Spectrum Noir pens and distress inks. Also added liquid pearls around the edge of the heart stamp and die cut with the 3D flowers on, I love that element.





I took a quick photo of all my elements




Then after several attempts at collaging them together I settled on this arrangment





Hope that you enjoyed reading about my card design.
Take a look at Aneta's wonderful blog, there is still time to enter her challenge.
Thank you for visiting

  3. I read your introduction by Darnell at NBUS and I had to visit your blog and am now your newest follower. Always glad to see another "Kathy" in blogland. I love your card and the many layers used. I'm wondering what size card base you use?

    1. Hi Kathy, so glad that you have visited my blog and thank you for joining my blog followers. My card base is 10 x 8 inches, it kept getting larger as I was constructing it, the more elements that I added the more it spread out. I started with a blue 7in square, added the red striped die cut and just needed more after that.
