House of Cards May Bokeh Challenge

It's time for a new challenge over on the House of Cards Challenge Blog.  This month our challenge is all about bokeh.


There are several You Tube videos that demonstrate this technique.  I took my inspiration from this PIN on Pinterest and came up with this card.


I love how the gold on the black cardstock is so elegant.  Here's a close up of the bokeh. 


Stamps and dies are from Just Rite.  
Come join us over at the House of Cards for a fun month of bokeh!

Happy Crafting!
Donna

    This is a technique I haven't tried yet. It goes really well with your elegant black and gold card.

    This card is a stunning beauty. I still have yet to try this technique, but when I do I will have to work with black paper as you have done here. Enjoy your weekend.
