Good afternoon and welcome to my blog.
I hope that you have had a wonderful Christmas.
Sadly since I was unwell with Tonsillitis my craft mojo decided to take a little break. But yesterday I had a little play with my new Stampin' Up! pre-order and made this card:
The inspiration for my card was from:
where the challenge is to CASE the designer (Bibi Cameron). I used the circular element and blue colour tones.
The stamp set that I used is called 'Helping Me Grow' which is in the new Spring/Summer catalogue and will be available January 5th. If you would like a FREE copy just send me an email HERE and I will pop one in the post for you.
My flowers are stamped with Basic Grey Archival ink pad and then coloured with my Blender Pen and Soft Sky/Pear Pizzazz ink pads. The backing paper is from the Subtles DSP. I finished off with a lick of a Wink Of Stella pen.
I would also like to enter ALLSORTS CHALLENGE BLOG where the theme is 'Anything but Christmas' and as I used some snippets of Soft Sky card stock I will also enter Pixies Snippets Playground. Miss Di is having a huge celebration as it is four years since she took over the playground. There are lots of fabulous prizes to win so I would get all of your snippets out and enter the fun over there!
I am just deciding whether to get the hoover out or make another card Mmmmmm!
Yes - the card wins!!!
Hope you have a great day and thanks for stopping by.
Wonderful card Eve! I thought you were quiet chick - glad you seem to be better now - especially if you can even think about vacuuming! LOVE the colours you used - gorgeous and I desperately need to sort myself a SU order out. To be honest, I felt so ill with this wretched gout I wasn't sure if I'd ever be up to crafting again!

So soft and beautiful! My mom had flowers like that in a vase when I was growing up (artificial flowers). Reminds me of them!
ReplyDeleteEve, You've captured these soft blues perfectly - what a great stamp set to do it. Great project! Thank you so much for playing along with this Global Design Project CASE the Designer Challenge.

Thanks also for the catalogues you sent me...I've spied a few bits I want to order on the 4th...a new year crafting pressie to myself lol! I'm pleased too that your craft mojo has returned and with such a pretty little card too! Beautiful colouring and I love all the sparkle too, the colours are so fresh!
