Yay!! I finally got my card done! I played around with several designs... scrapped them all... and then this one just happened lol! My design takes its inspiration from the colors of the fruit as well as the wedge shapes (really stretching that shape since its a diamond!). I decided to add dimension using dimensional adhesive as well as a twig from my backyard ;) Then a bit of stickles for shine. I really do love how it turned out, especially since it wasn't going all that well for me in the beginning! Thank you for this wonderful challenge! It really pushed my creativity.

I don't think this was stretching at ALL! I LOVE this, Lisa! This is totally adorable and a WONDERFUL interpretation of the photo! So glad you're on the team, your cards are beautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteWow Lisa - great card. I love all the details - the twig from your back yard, the stickles, the embossed lines - it all adds up. A very creative interpretation of the citrus summer fruit. You do fantastic work!
ReplyDeleteDon't you love it when a card doesn't 'feel right' and then out of no where it comes together like you planned it all along?!? hehehe Happens to me 99% of the time Lisa! I swear it! This card is fabulous! Love the scored background and the sparkle is just beautiful! :)
