FTTC & CC#2


 Hey there Bloggers, Got another card to share today. I'm sharing a card I made for the Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge 255, make a card with something "new" such as new baby in this case. I've used a Flourishes stamp set, name unknown (couldn't find it on the Flourishes site)  colored with Copics. I tried the pointillism technique. Not sure if it's correct but I gave it a shot. (Click on photo for a closer look). I chose markers to match the Echo Park This and That Charming design paper. The sentiment is Flourishes Tag Lines.
Keeping the Card Concept challenge #2 in mind, which is to add texture to your card, I used the Birds and Swirls embossing folder to mirror the bird and leaves in the stamp. The May Arts twine is very textural too!
My card style is Clean and Layered. This week's Mojo Monday Sketch 329 was used as well.

I've got babies on the brain because I'm gonna be a Grama soon, in a few months. There will be more baby cards forthcoming. :)
