Good Afternoon, Friends!
Today I have a card to share, for Daughter #2's Birthday (actually tomorrow, but we celebrated today). This card brings many wishes for her personally, but also for the wee one she's carrying! Yep, this'll be our second grandchild and we are ecstatic!
While most of us got together, our youngest daughter and family were unable to make it due to sickeness. While a cold or cough might be okay most days, we needed to take the extra precaution for Mama-to-be, so sadly some couldn't attend.
Here's the card ~
I ink-blended the florals from an NBUS stencil/die set and cut it out. The double hexagon frame and sentiment were hot foiled in black and die cut, to accent the black flower centers. The hexagon frame was popped up on foam, the flower popped up on low foam tape and the sentiment over that. Can you notice the shine from the foiling? Can you see the subtle color on the card base? Maybe this helps. Maybe not.
That foiling is hiding but the bottom left was ink blended with leftover ink on the brush in teal, and leftover sage in the upper right.
While I already had this card made, my friend Michele directed me to the challenge at Inkspirational #335 moodboard, plus I get to play along at NBUS #71 for most of my items used -- yay!
Supplies:
Alt. - Hill Blossoms stencil/die (NBUS)
MFT - Double Hexagon hot foil plate (NBUS)
PFS - Fancy Script Words hfp/dies
That's it for me today! Thank you for the visit -- have a blessed weekend!
Hugs,
TK

Very pretty. That framing makes it an elegant card. Congrats on being a gramma again soon 😀
I love the geometric frame which is the perfect way to show off the beautiful flowers!
TK, you're so right - your gorgeous card is PERFECT for that challenge, and for celebrating your daughter! The subtle blending you added to your card base really draws the eye to the hex foiling!

Yes I did notice the soft blending of the flower colors in the background, TK. That foiled hexagon is an elegant place to show off the flowers.
