Psst - I have a sneak peek of some of the products in the Fitting Florets Collection, coming soon !
Firstly, let me give some details about how you can make this card too. I started with equal sized strips 2.5cm x 9.5cm (1" x 3-3/4") - 2 x Basic White strips, and 3 x Garden Green strips. Then I used a blending brush to add Garden Green ink to four of the strips, to create an ombre look. The middle strip on the card is uninked Garden Green cardstock. For the random water spots, I flicked some water and then also Wink of Stella Glitter at random places over the strips.
Last year, my Father in law passed away unexpectedly before Christmas so I was acutely aware that the festivities can be a particularly lonely and unfulfilling time for those bereaved. I think a card like the one I share today acknowledges their loss and in the midst of joyful family gatherings, lets them know we see them and their pain. That we care and love them, and that we wish peace for their hurting heart.
I seem to have an addiction to using the Flat Jingle Bell Trinkets (#159980) in every Christmas project that I make. Other than the White Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon (#151326) and the Pearl Basic Jewels (#144219), the rest of the elements on this card are from the Fitting Florets Collection (#163129) available in November. BUT, you don't have to wait till November - you can get it now by adding to your Starter Kit !
