More time to play with my stamps today as we are having April showers!! I decided to make another card with my Tim Holtz Flower Garden set, after stamping and embossing the flowers on water colour paper, I coloured the images and decided that I wanted the colours to be subtle. So I cut a panel of Vellum and stitched it to my coloured panel. I then added a butterfly and the sentiment.
There is a new challenge blog set up by Monica and Lilian called "Creative with Stamps" Their first challenge is " Butterflies" I love a new challenge so I will be adding this card.
I am also adding it to the Simon Says Wednesday Challenge. "Happy Birthday".
My next card is a very simple CAS Birthday card, I found an old Hero Arts stamp "Block of four sqaures" in my draw and had to ink it up again! I have just added a die from Simon Says, some pearls and a sentiment.
Hope you are having a great week.
Two beautiful cards, Sally! Thanks so much for joining us at CWS for our first challenge, I really hoped you would! Jo x
