I ran out of time this weekend to play with the second Card Concept Challenge, which was a bit disappointing; however, I woke up this morning with a very clear idea in my head of what I could do for this challenge, and I just had to make the card. I normally don't craft while my little one is awake, but I knew he would enjoy painting as well, so we got out the acrylic paints and went to town. I drew inspiration for both the texture and layout of my card from The Card Concept photo.
I die cut PTI's Framed Out #11 die for the stencil for my heart and painted directly on the burlap. I also painted the mini clothespins to match the cardstock. The sentiment is from Winnie & Walter's The Big, the Bold, and the Happy. I used PTI's Stitching Lines Dies, so I could stitch the sentiment flag on, so I'm also entering this into the Simon Says Anything Goes with Twine or String Challenge. ETA: Oops...I forgot to mention the style of the card: clean and simple. I think that's a requirement for The Card Concept. Yikes...I just looked at the time. I better link this up before it's too late. Thanks so much for stopping by today! Have a happy Monday!
