This card will be going to one of my downline members who's celebrating her five-year anniversary as a demonstrator. To match the celebration feel of the card, I included Foil Frenzy Specialty Designer Paper. The foil on those papers really make any project stand out. And since it's for a special event, I made sure that the envelope was equally as special so I used the foil paper to make an envelope as well.
I used the new set Going Far. The fact that the stamp set was only available in English gave me pause, but I really liked the cute images, especially the stacked luggage, so I ended up getting it. I used the Large Numbers Framelits to die-cut a large 5 out of the foil paper and I made the number lean against the luggage. I think it turned out pretty cool!
The card base was stamped with VersaMark and the Burlap background stamp to give it a bit of texture. Oh, and that piece of Old Olive patterned paper? It's from the Holidays Catalogue 2017 Merry Little Christmas Designer Series Paper. A lot of the patterns are generic enough to use on everyday project, so you're going to get a lot out of that paper pack.
The design was inspired by past Mojo Monday sketch #492 and colors by ColourQ #246, and the theme by Global Design Project #99 (Annniversary). I think the combo would have looked even better with the original Bordering Blue colour, but I really wanted to stick to current colours since this is a downline card, so I switched to Marina Mist as the closest match.
