Harmonious Sprig is another gorgeous new background from Unity. I used it to create a card for one of the Splitcoast Sketch challenges.
The image was stamped on Natural White Cardstock in Tuxedo Black ink and watercolored with Ranger Distress inks (Vintage Photo, Old Paper, Shabby Shutters). White Liquid Pearls were added over the pines and branch. White Organdy Ribbon from May Arts was tied around the lower half. One of my Mom’s old buttons was tied with Linen Thread around the ribbon.
The card base is a 4 1/4″ x 12″ piece of Textured Chocolate Chip cardstock folded in half. A 4″ x 5 3/4″ piece of Natural White was layered with 1/4″ narrower pieces of Basic Grey Fruitcake and Wassail Paper. The layers were stitched together. A 2″ x 4″ piece of Textured Chocolate Chip Cardstock was punched with the Eyelet border punch and adhered slightly above the center of the card. Three white brads were added to the left of the image.

GORGEOUS card! Funny me–when I first read it, I thought it said, “Harmonious Spring”, and I was really trying to make that work with the image I was seeing…guess I need a nap!
This looks like a 3-dimensional winter scene. Just beautiful.
