Hello! The challenge for this month was to demonstrate techniques we have learned from someone else whether online or in person.
My card for this month's blog hop is inspired by a few different techniques and a couple of crafters.
The first two techniques I used involved altering ribbon. The sentiment was stamped on twill ribbon and the silk ribbon was colored with Copic markers to get a custom color. These I learned on Nicole Heady's blog. The final inspiration was the felt flower which was inspired by an image in Dawn McVey's Color Couture Volume 3. Here is a close-up:
Thank you Nicole and Dawn for all of your endless inspiration!
Have fun blog hopping!
