I started this card with my Distress Inks and stencils. I always build my abstracts by starting with the largest elements first, then filling in with smaller elements as I go. This panel began with my largest shape and Bundled Sage, then I added Saltwater Taffy, and finished by adding Salvaged Patina to balance the composition.
I pulled a couple of Simon Says Stamp stamp sets from my stash and added my floral elements to build a spray in opposite corners. I wanted the floral elements to be slightly offset, yet balanced. The sentiment also came from Simon Says Stamp. I love a mixed-font greeting, especially when combined with a size variation like I used here.
To complete this card I pulled out the trusty stitched rectangles to trim my panel. Once I had a trimmed panel I adhered it to a kraft card base. I added a little glam with a sprinkling of clear sequins.
