The background of this card was inspired by a video shared by Jennifer McGuire. I used sticky strip and gold flakes to create shimmery stripes. I was eager to give it a try right after seeing the video, but then the piece was left unused on my desk for weeks afterwards because I just couldnt find anything to pair it with, despite my best try.
I finally got inspired today, though the DTGD challenges, Lawn Fanatics challenge #10 (Create your custom sentiment), Match the Sketch #188 and past ColourQ combo #171. For the sentiment, I wanted something that had to do with a king, and I found "Queen for a day" in another set, so I masked off the first word when inking, and then I created "king" using an alphabet set. It worked out well that it was a short word: made my job easier!
