My card today is quite a bit out of my regular range but it's good to do that sometimes right? I was scanning through my list of challenges to see what caught my eye and the Festive Friday list for World Conservation Day had a great mix of elements to choose from so I dug around and this is what I came up with.
The elements I incorporated into my card are: Kraft, copper, foliage, recycling, vellum and thank you sentiment.
The kraft advertisement background is part of a paper bag that I received an Etsy order in and I tucked it away in my stamp room thinking that I could make a card out of it! So its for the kraft and recycle element at the same time. I stamped some Crumb Cake circles with one of the accents stamps from Timeless Arrangements me to add a bit of detail.
The copper comes in the way of retired copper foil with die cut foliage sprigs from the Timeless Arrangement dies as well as a bit of copper washi tape on 2 corners. It's so hard to photograph foil elements but it's a really nice rich look against the kraft background.
The square vellum doily is also retired but makes a nice base on which to add the thank you sentiment and foliage.
Thanks to the Festive Friday team for a fun (out of my comfort zone) challenge!
