Thank you cards for Paru's Card Making Challenges

Hello!!

Today I have a Thank You card and tag that I made for my challenge blog

Paru's Card Making Challenges

I just love how this card turned out!!

I started by stamping the floral image from Craftangles 'Beautiful Bloom Border' stamp set in black and heat embossing it with a clear embossing powder.

I then watercoloured the background using warm fall colours.

Once the background was dry, I partially embossed the background using Cuttlebug 'swirls' embossing powder.

I finished the card with a sentiment from Winnie and Walter (which I did in two colours, using the Misti), and sequins from Craftangles and A1Craft supply.

For my tag, I started with a tag die cut from MFT. 

I then stamped the sentiment from Winnie and Walter (using Tim Holtz distress ink) 

repeatedly to create a background.

To create the focal image, 

I die cut the square stamp using a Cuttlebug die, 

and then stamped the floral image (source unknown) on it. 

After colouring and distressing using Tim Holtz distress inks,

I added some Craftangles sequins and some green ribbon to finish the tag.
