Hello Hivers, Here is the second card I made using the Pigment Sprinkles background I talked about yesterday. I really enjoyed using all of the products to make this card. I sponged over the Coastal Weave 3D Embossing Folder with the Whisper White Craft ink to give the cardstock a more weathered look. I added some Bermuda Bay reinker to the craft white reinker and used it around the rectangle frame. To get the color on the leaves I used the thumbing technique.

Hello Hivers, This card was in the making since April 2019. I made a card, HERE, and used the Rectangle Stitched Framelits to cut out the center. I had this frame left over and I have been saving it. I finally got around to using it with the Timeless Tropical Bundle. I colored my images with Watercolor Pencils. The frame was made using Glossy Cardstock and the Blenders & Alcohol Background Technique. Don't be afraid to use your products that are retired. You buy them so that you can use them. I do it all the time.
