Welcome friends! I am happy to be playing along with The Card Concept Challenge #166:
I made 3 cards in total for a Clean & Graphic Style. I think my inspiration is self-evident: The black & white stripes, the colors and the elegant gold:
To create these beauties, I used the following (some with affiliate links):

- Ranger Ink: Tim Holtz Distress Watercolor Paper
- The Stamp Market: Watercolor Pan Set
- Blick Art: Daniel Smith Dot Watercolor Cards, Versamark Ink
- Arteza: Pink, Bubblegum Pink and Rose Watercolor Paints
- Scrapbook.com: Kuretake Gansi Tambi - Starry Colors Yellow Gold, Gold Mirror Cardstock by Tonic, Hero Arts Vellum Cardstock
- Hero Arts: Nesting Circle Infinity Dies
- Honey Bee: A7 Double Stitched Frames
- Nuvo: Gold Enchantment Embossing Power
- Spellbinders: Glimmer Hot Foil Sentiments: Everyday Sentiments II, More Sentiments, Bearly Art Glue Kit
- Ellen Hutson: White Linen 100 lb. cardstock

Here are some close ups pictures of all three cards:

These are ALL gorgeous--I couldn't pick a favorite if my life depended on it! You've interpreted the photo in such a stunning way! The florals are beautiful, but the gold accents really take them up several notches! Thanks for sharing these with us at The Card concept!
ReplyDeleteThank you, LeAnne! Your comments mean a lot to me.
DeleteWell, Miss Antia...what can I say here? I was (kinda) told that I was "replacing you" somewhat on the DT here. BIG shoes to fill! So....here you are, still making the most FABULOUS cards for the challenge. Girl! You are amazing. These are so beautiful. I won't be able to fill your shoes...they're not even the right size (lol). I will say that your art will inspire me. You are SO talented, Anita. I hope that everything is going well, and I'm so grateful for your creativity and talent. Thanks for sharing it with us still.
