The Card Concept Challenge #96-Golden Table

Welcome to The Card Concept Challenge #96!

This will be our last challenge for the summer,

and it is a beauty!!!!

I love pink and gold together! So elegant and pretty!

Here is my card:

I got to play with my new June 2018 Small Die of the Month Kit Club from Spellbinders!  I love Spellbinder dies because they beautifully emboss their die cuts!  The gold candles and pretty white flowers are from this set.

I started by making a pretty pink background  by smooshing 

Picked Raspberry, Tattered Rose and Worn Lipstick Distress inks on some Bristol card stock.

I also added some splatters with the same colors.

When the panel was dry, I die cut it with the Wonky Borders (Avery Elle) die.

I hope I have inspired you to join us here at
