LIMES - Thinking of You

Welcome to this week's LIMES inspiration post!

I chose this card as my inspiration from the gallery of this week’s Splitcoaststampers Featured Stamper:

LIST: Colours (aqua, white, grey, beige) , Techniques (stamping, die cutting) , Elements (blue panel with gray and white elements (patterned paper), added ephemera and stamped birds. stamped sympathy sentiment)

INCLUDE: aqua, white, grey, stamping, blue panel with gray and white lined elements,

MODIFY: background panel stamped in grey and white heat embossing instead of patterned paper, sentiment is die cut and popped up on white circle

EXCLUDE: beige, birds, beach/underwater theme

SPIN: square card with white border

I finished with a circle die cut to cover the place where my white leaves overlapped each other, and a popped up sentiment
