Hello!
i hope this Friday finds you well!
We have a bit of snow here today. Snow-covered gardens look so pretty - I just wish they'd come up with some kind of magic ingredient so that it didn't settle on the roads and footpaths!
Anyway, on to things crafty and over at The Daring Cardmakers we have February's Elemental Inspiration Picture board to work with this time

All
you need to remember is to select at least three elements from Joanne's picture and use them when you make your card
I chose the colours, lace and buttons, and one of my favourite go-to layouts for this one. Here's Joanne's picture
I started by making a stencilled background with my most favourite
stencil and several shades of blue ink, plus a little silver Starlights
paint and a touch of silver Alchemy Wax. Then added ribbon, lace and
some lovely flowers from my large flower stash (its about time I used
some!). To finish I added some tiny buttons, including a heart shapes
one to echo the button heart from the picture, and a die cut sentiment.:
I enjoyed making this - probably because I used so many favourite things and techniques!
I hope you'll take a look at the other wonderful cards our fabulous team have made this week - Click HERE to visit the blog - and we'd love you to join in and play along with us too.
That's all for this time, thank you for visiting
Happy Crafting
Love the way you have used the elements you chose and the colours are really pretty
ReplyDeleteYay, glad you enjoyed this one! It’s definitely a distinctively Kathy card - looks great! The subtle variations in colour make the stencilling look that bit extra special!
ReplyDeleteHi Kathy this is a gorgeous card I love it. Take care. Hugs Jackie
