Thought of my sister when I made this card. Her favorite dessert was lemon meringue pie.
So many creative steps went into the making of this card.
First, I decided that I wanted to make my own background paper. I took the lemon stamp from the Make Lemonade Stamp Set and randomly stamped the image on the Whip Cream Card Stock.
Next, I got out my Journey Color Splash Pencils and colored them in. After coloring, I used a wet small tip brush (there is one included with the pencils) to blend and smooth out the coloring.
After allowing the background design to dry I attached the layers together using our Easy Glide Permanent Adhesive Runner.
The sentiment is from the same stamp set as the lemon design. I stamped it on a piece of card stock that I had cut and used the "elements" to create a paper pierced look to it. Dies: Journey Rectangles. It is a set of 12 ... 6 cutting die and 6 element dies.
The sentiment piece was "popped up" using Journey Foam Squares. This adds depth and dimension to the card design.
I absolutely love the Slice-Fetti with its tiny pieces of fruit. I used tweezers and Craft Glue to adhere them tot he card. After gluing allow a few minutes to dry.
