Hello and Happy September!
Marina is our host this week at City Crafter Challenge
and the theme she has picked is "In a Jam"
Create a project that features Fruit and/or a Jam Jar (mason jar)
I made this card for some friends who recently celebrated their wedding anniversary
Truthfully I am not one for using fruit on cards - I could have opted to use a jar but hey, it's a challenge... I cut the pears and leaves on my Cameo and then used distress paints to colour them
The paper I used - Basic Grey I think - is some that I've been hoarding... I love the colours

Have a lovely day my friends

Lovely card, Ros, I love your blue and green that you used. Love your water color Pear! Happy Tuesday!
ReplyDeleteI think it's pretty pearfect :). And this color palette is gorgeous; I LOVE shades of blue paired up with green. These pears look so real!

Fun card with the 'pear' fect sentiment x Loving the distress effect, the colours and the layout. Clever idea to use the patterned blue paper for the leaves, works so well. You might have preferred a jar but the Pears are gorgeous x
ReplyDeleteI have to say it again: how lovely! The sentiment is adorable and I love how you staged it! (I hope that is an expression that can be used in this context...)
ReplyDeleteVery pretty anniversary card with the pears, Ros! I'm sure the recipients of this wonderful card will love it!
ReplyDeleteYou did a great job despite fruit not being your thing.x
