Crafty Collaboration – Insta Blog Hop April 12 – Misty Moonlight – Nature’s Prints

Thank you for joining us in our Crafty Collaborations Insta Blog Hop. This Hop is a weekly hop that is a Monochromatic Color challenge and is shared on Instagram. This week’s color is Misty Moonlight.

For my card I used the Nature’s Print stamp set and matching dies Natural Prints (retiring soon). The stamped image is heat embossed with White embossing powder and the smaller Misty Moonlight layer is embossed with the Timeworn Type Embossing folder (also retiring soon). The sentiment is one of my go to greetings called the Go To Greetings ( which is retiring soon as well) but I will be keeping mine stamp set. The Designer Series Paper is the Neutrals 6×6 Designer Series Pack. I like to use card sketches to get ideas to make my cards and I used one of Melva Peters, Stamping With Melva card sketch this time. The dimensions for the layer for this card are printed below the card layout.
