Kintsugi Note

In honour of the Suite Sale, I will be showcasing a different suite every week this month! This week is the New Kintsugi Inspirations Suite. Have you heard of Kintsugi? It's the centuries-old Japanese technique of mending treasured objects with lacquer and gold. Now, you can embrace the beauty of this ancient art using stamps, dies and paper with the Kintsugi Inspirations Suite Collection! It features ceramic and fracture designs, patterned paper with gold foil detail, and gold embellishments.

For this card I cut out a vase, a bowl and a flower from the patterned paper, and then layered them on a Spotlight on Nature die circle.  I made a background pattern in exactly the colours I wanted by colouring it with Blends to complement my bowls. I used Lost Lagoon, Petal Pink and Ivory (since there is no Basic Beige Blend). The sentiment is from the Beautiful Motifs stamp set. To echo the touches of gold in the background paper and in the vase and bowl, I embellished with some of the new gold Flower Accents.

I used Lost Lagoon for my card base - love this shade of bluey-green. This was a fun card to make!
