Music of the Earth

 It's the first day of fall and as I write this the chilly weather really gets me in the mood! Just a quick post today of a card I made awhile back and I hope will inspire you. 



I love the Botanicuts Rose Die (The Greetery) and wanted to try cutting designer paper to form the petals. I found a paper in my stash with varying shades of yellow/gold and went with that. It makes the rose less bulky and I love the look! Adding more papers from my stash for the leaves, and a burst of white from the Inside & Out Berry Branch Die rounded out the focal point. 
Here's a close up of the lovely layers. 



Finishing out the card is a sentiment stamped on black ( from Penny Black: Blooming Sentiments) and embossed with white, and black Nuvo drops. 
Rushing to post this as I have 6.5 hours of ZOOM class coming up. This will take place every day this week, stretching my mind! Creativity will be coming in spurts, if at all. 
Thank you for coming to my blog. Hope you're surrounded by music for your heart today!

Be yourself

     Delight in your craft

Your layered roses are absolutely beautiful! The gently shaded designer paper is a good idea. I like layering with DP because it saves weight and bulk. Such a pretty card and, of course, you know I love yellow. It's 74 degrees and cloudy with a south wind here today. I love it outside! Feels like fall, but so warm.

Absolutely gorgeous! I love the shading on the flowers - and the combination of patterns, solid dies and open dies behind them. Such a lovely arrangement!
