A Kept Life: Fusion Card Challenge

Hi friends! I hope you're having a great day! If you're looking for a new challenge you'll find another winner at Fusion Card Challenge. You'll love this challenge because there are three ways to play.. you can play along with the sketch, be inspired by the photo, or FUSE them together and play with BOTH!

The challenge this time is called Thankful! I'm typically drawn to the inspiration photos, but I'll be honest.. I don't see enough color this time! I see some embroidery, white florals, and LOTS OF NEUTRALS. If you're not feeling the photo, that's ok.. just play along with the sketch.

I love a challenge! I took a little longer than I wanted putting this together.. but that's ok.. I'm really happy with how it turned out! The background is the Altenew Shutter Cover. I was happy it's slightly smaller than an A2 size card. This allowed for a little room for a darker espresso colored matt. These layers remind me of the framed photos in the background of the inspiration pic.

I started by making some 3D Roses from Altenew. This is three layer die cut. The hardest part for me was keeping them white LOL! I cut them from white watercolor paper and inked only the middle layer with some Distress Oxide in Old Paper.

I inked the leaves in Distress Oxide also in Twisted Citron, Mowed Lawn and Pine Needles. The sprinkle of sequins are from Pretty Pink Posh in Bronze to match the metallic in the photo.

Now it's your turn! Now it's your turn! Are you ready to play? I wonder how you will interpret the photo! Maybe you need a little more inspiration? Check out designs from the rest of the team. Just click on their names below to jump to their blogs.

I hope I see you at Fusion Card Challenge! I cant wait to see what you make!
