Happy Sunday, guys! Are you celebrating Mardi Gras? In Bolivia, "Carnaval" is such a big and colorful thing! And the best is that we get two festive days. Which means a bit more crafting time. Which means I have a card ;)
Have you heard the news at CAS-ual Fridays challenge? There's an amazing new team, and a few great changes. After two years as a Girl Friday, it will always be a challenge dear to me, and of course I had to play along in their first challenge of this "new era": use two shades of grey.
And this is what happened:
It all started with a super cool stencil I die cut with the Cameo using the new SRM stencil material. This stuff is simply amazing! Perfect thickness and sticky backed with a protector film you peel off. I'm thinking about posting a tutorial soon :)
Ok, so I used the stencil to sponge two shades of grey (Fresh Ink) on pink cardstock. Then I stamped and embossed the gorgeous bloom from Nina's Love Notes. The sentiment is from the same set (it reminds me to a dymo tag). Finally, I die cut the panel, adhered it to the card base with foam tape and threw in some gold Stickles.I debated between adding white enamel accents (the liquid one) or gold glitter. Gold won.
There you go! Thanks for visiting!
Absolutely beautiful Lorena. I love the touch of coral with the gray. So beautiful!

Fabulous colour palette Lorena! Those greys over the pink are divine, and I love the pop from the flower and the gold! Scrummy!!
