Sunshine in my pocket

We Must Ketchup Card

September 14, 2013 Paper Crafting

9-13-we-must-ketchup

If you got this card in the mail, would you laugh out loud?! I think I would. I am just loving the Paper Smooches Vegtastic stamp set. And that chevron embossing folder (Lifestyle Crafts) is adorable, too.

I did a color wash on those tomatoes with watercolor and then used some pop dots to give dimension to the card (see that in this side view pict). After I was taking some pictures, I thought it could use a bit more of the green color, so I added some unfaceted gems to the sentiment flag:

They are difficult to see in the pictures, but they’re a nice light green to match the tomato tops! That sentiment is fantastic…and it really pops with the white heat embossing.

I tied the red twine to the top, and I think it sorta resembles a tomato splat…can you visualize it?! ๐Ÿ™‚ I hope you enjoyed this happy card today!
