GDT for Artbymiran Showcase Blog - Using Artbymiran Fairy Lily
Hello friends. I am very excited to be chosen as a GDT for Art By Miran Showcase blog; for the month of January. It is such a pleasure to use Art By Miran images. She is so talented and her images bring lots of joy to those who use them; as well as those who receive them. I used the gorgeous Artbymiran Fairy Lily. I decided to try a card base that I have never used before; so here it is.
This is my first Criss Cross card and it was really fun to create. I used 2 - 6 x 12 cardstock for the two layers; but you can make it with other sizes as well. Click here for Criss Cross tutorial that I just found for you; using the same size card I used. Click here for a smaller version of this card created by Splitcoaststampers.
My pictures didn't take as well as I would have liked. The purples and lavender colors are gorgeous in person; but they aren't as vibrant in the pictures. I did use both my camera as well as my Iphone; but neither one captures the perfect colors. The blond is actually a lot lighter and less bold in person. LOL! Oh well; we do the best we can. I hope you enjoy my card.
