MFTWSC #172

The long weekend has ended so quickly and I hope everyone had a good one.

I have a card to share today by using the sketch from MFT and colour challenge from Dynamic Duos. I love the colour challenge of this week as I find it rather special.

The base card is embossed with SU folder and this time I used the MFT fishtail in a different approach. I painted the gold paint onto the raspberry cardstock and love how it turned out.

Nuclear Security Summit in The Hague

After months of intensive preparation, today is the Nuclear Security Summit in The Hague attended by world leaders from 53 countries.  As you can already imagine, the security within the vicinity of the meeting (I live nearby) is highly secured. Helicopters are patrolling very frequently, security guards are on the roads and every lamp polls are secured with a camera!

This morning when I cycled to school (13.5km) knowing that if I were to take a train, it's going to cause some serious delay.  While on the road, I felt so peaceful as there were hardly any cars and most of all the sky was blue but cold!

Enough of the Summit and back to my card.  Today, I am sharing a card by using my only stamp set from Reverse Confetti - Stripey.

Love all the different type of stripes on this set.  Using the colour challenge from Reverse Confetti, stamped on a cardstock and machine-stitched on the border. Stamped and heat embossed on a vellum tag so that the stripes are still visible.

I also added some sequins behind the vellum as I did not want it to over power the whole card.
