*********************************

This is my 5"x 7" card, using EyeConnect Crafts' Lace-Up: Celebration, Flags...

I brushed white gesso on the Lace-Up: Celebration, Flags, let dry and removed them from the carrier.

I taped different washi tapes on the Flags, trimmed the excess off, re-punched the holes and added a polka-dot ribbon.

I trimmed a light pink panel and stamped "chicken wire" (center) and sentiment (around the edges) with light pink ink (CTMH stamps). 

I die cut a white frame in my ScanNCut and stamped texture (CTMH) with brown ink. I outlined it with a fine tip black pen and adhered it on the pink panel.

I stamped sentiment in brown and added a cluster of paper flowers, with sequins in the centers.

Finally, I added the Flags on with foam tape for dimension.

1. Double D: Think Spring

2. Word Art Wed #272-#273: AGoes

{Sun} Sweets: Washi Meets...Lilies

Hello,

I have a card, using washi tape, to share today...I didn't post it on Wed since I already had 2 post for that day...

I stamped the lily 3 times with VersaMark, sprinkled white embossing powder on, brushed off some sections for a "faux masking" (although I missed a spot), heat embossed, and colored with Copic and ShinHan TouchTwin markers.
I stamped the frame and "He is risen" on patterned paper, fussy cut it and turned it into a "vase/pot".
I added the washi tape on the left and stamped a border...

And here's the inside of the card:
