Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge: Orchard



It's time for a new Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge!

 thedesignfiles.net

We hope you'll play along! The LEAD of this challenge will be invited as a Guest Designer in a future challenge! Please visit the Curtain Call Challenge blog for all the challenge info and deadline.


I pulled out Papertrey's Enclosed: Apple stamps and Enclosed: Apple dies to make a gift enclosure card. The base piece is watercolored (I used Worn Lipstick, Twisted Citron, and Squeezed Lemonade Distress Inks), then die-cut with the Enclosed: Apple solid die. The black frame was die-cut from Papertrey's True Black Bitty Dots Basics pattern and adhered with liquid glue. I popped up the sentiment strip on foam tape and added a trio of sequins to embellish a little.


Here's a look at the Basic Folded Tag die that makes the base card that fits all of the shaped dies in the Enclosed series.




Make sure you visit each of the designers' blogs for more inspiration!
