Sentimental Sundays: Thanksgiving/Thank you

12112011584 Hello hello!

It’s time for another challenge at Sentimental Sundays and this week the theme is Thanksgiving/Thank You. In order to enter make sure you use a sentiment on your creation!

Because I have zero mojo, I have kept my card really simple. I used the colour story at PDCC, my splash is more of a bucket full of orange. I have painted the shaded orange/rust layer with fabric dyes and I sanded the edges to give it a bit distressed look.

The glittery black strips are black glitter ribbon. The butterfly is a print out, I have given it an orange tint with regular Faber Castell colour pencils and applied a bit of black glitter. The sentiment is from HA.

Happy crafting!
