This new Festive Friday Challenge has inspired a card with paper weaving and watercolour in pastel colours

Challenge #FF0096 celebrates World Kindness Day which happens on November 13th and is a very worthwhile thing to be celebrating. ” In a World where you can be anything, be kind.”

The Inspo List is 10 items you can choose from to create your project in our card making and paper crafting challenge.  Incorporate THREE of the items in your project and link up! And guess what? Your project doesn’t have to be about the theme at all!  The selected festivity is just a unique way to come up with a fun and interesting inspiration list! 

My project used: flowers, pearls, embossing, thank you sentiment, weaving, pastel colours and shimmer

You can see all the products I used at the end of the post, including links to my online store.

A Card With Paper Weaving and Watercolour

Instructions

• Fold the card base along the score line. Stick the Pale Papaya mat to the card base.
• Using the star crossed embossing folder, emboss the Basic White layer and stick to the card base.
• Lay 5 strips of Mint Macaron Dsp down and then weave the Pale Papaya and Blushing Bride strips through them. Stick the woven piece to some scrap card and then die cut with the large layering circle die. Ensure all the ends are stuck down. Stick the circle to the card base.

• Stamp the flower image onto Shimmery White cardstock with Stazon ink. Use a water painter and Blushing Bride, Pale Papaya and Mint Macaron ink to colour the flowers. Die cut with the coordinating die.
• Add some Pale Papaya ribbon to the back of the flowers and then add to the side of the woven circle with dimensionals.
• Stamp the sentiment onto an oddment of Shimmery White cardstock in Mint Macaron ink. Trim at an angle and back with Blushing Bride cardstock. Stick to the circle, tucking the end underneath the flowers.
• Finish the front by adding some pink pearls from the Pastel Pearls set.

• Stamp some flowers on each corner of the Basic White insert with Blushing Bride ink and then stick in place. You could decorate your envelope similarly.

How Can I Help?

The Hand Penned Suite is so pretty and I love the effect of that woven circle on the card. And just how cool is that embossing folder!
