Hello, I'm sharing a card I made recently using the Organic die as a background. I took my inspirations from this tag, I used Kraft card as I loved the shabby effect after sanding and it was painted with PaperArtsy Concrete. The flower was cut with watercolour paper and coloured with Abandoned Coral DI and I distressed the edges of the base layer with Abandoned Coral, although it does look quite pale in the photo, I haven't added a sentiment, yet.
A short post as I desperately need to do some catching up with commenting - DT and my own!
Enjoy the rest of the Bank Holiday weekend.
