Across the Miles

Hello everyone, it's time for a new theme at Allsorts challenge and Gail is hosting. Her optional theme for the next two weeks is Sympathy, Thinking of You or Get Well. And as always, the Anything Goes option is there too. The prize comes from Highlight Crafts, three die sets plus reflections and paper.

I used another new to me 8x8 paper pad by Stamperia for the focal point, this one is called Sunflower Art. I actually purchased it at the end of last year so it took me a while to actually use it. Lots of pretty papers and it always hurts to cut into them so I used a large portion of one for my card front. I did add some splatter using a black Posca pen, some glitter to the flower centers, distressed the edges and then used my sewing machine around the edges. I layered the card front onto matching cardstock from SU (I'm not sure about the name of the color and it's probaby long retired). The card front is a heavy weight kraft card.

Sentiment is from the Penny Black clear set Eloquence. 

I plan to share the card with these challenges:

• Crafty Calendar - Summer 
• Crafty Catz - AG
• Love Those Pretty Papers Challenge - Patterned Papers
• Paper Rock Scissors - Paper and/ or Scissors (I used scissors for distressing and all layers are paper)
• The Card Concept - Sunflower Delight (I was inspired by the sunflowers and think my card would fall into the shabby/vintage style)
• The Paper Funday - AG
• Triple B - Blooms, Birds or Butterflies
• Word Art Wednesday - AG

As always, thanks so much for visiting and hope you're having wonderful sunny weekend!
