Sow Seeds of Kindness Card

Today I'm featuring a card I made that is so perfect for Spring!

I love this soft shade of pink against the black and white! It's really striking!

I started with a base of textured pink cardstock. To that, I added a panel of the beautiful Canvas Corp. paper, The Watering Can: Bikes and Baskets on Ivory.

I then added my message, "Sow Seeds of Kindness" which is cut out from a piece of paper from the Canvas Corp. In the Garden paper collection.

For my last step, I added a strip of the Canvas Corp. Burlap Fringe in Light Pink to the bottom of the card.

I then adorned the card with pink paper flowers and a dark grey paper butterfly.

What a lovely card for Spring! The message is truly sweet and the colors are so lovely!

Before and After

Every so often I like to take a look at some of the pieces I've created and re-do them.

Here is an example of a mixed media canvas that I "revamped" recently. It was an okay piece but I wasn't totally happy with it.

The original piece looked like this:

To start with, I removed the pink flower and metallic embellishment. I then began my redesign using a couple of Canvas Corp Brands products. 

I replaced the pink flower with Canvas Corp Brands Canvas Flower. I placed that in the upper left corner of my canvas.

Then, I cut out a square panel from the 7gypsies Gypsy Mixed Media Pad - Gypsy Moments and adhered that at the bottom corner of the canvas. The message I selected reads "passion changes everything" which totally resonates with my creative spirit!!

For the final touch, I lightly sprayed the entire canvas with Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist - Vanilla Breeze. It gave the canvas a wonderful, aged look.

I'm really pleased with the way my "revamped" mixed media canvas turned out! I love the soft, rustic colors and textures.
