The Card Concept

 Hello there Crafty Friends! I have some exciting news today. I have been invited to join the incredibly talented Design Team at The Card Concept! Woohoo!!!


So here is my 1st card as part of the DT for Challenge #179 Change of Seasons...



I hope you can see how I was inspired! I loved the beautiful Butterfly, but I chose to use the colours from the 'out of focus' background.  I tried to recreate that by using muted colours  (Distress Oxide Inks) and a Faux Bokeh Technique.  I sponged the inks on the card panels and then spritzed with water. On the front panel, I randomly sponged white Ink circles to give the look of Bokeh.

I think my card is CLEAN & LAYERED' and 'MIXED MEDIA'.


Just a reminder, an inspiration photo is exactly that- a starting point for inspiration. Will it be the colours, the overall theme, the texture, the actual items and/or something else that will inspire your card? 


I hope you'll visit The Card Concept Challenge Blog to see what the rest of the team has created and will be inspired to play along in the challenge with us. 

Supplies used: Penny Black Butterfly Trio;  Sentiment stamp no longer available
