The weeks seem to be romping by ... can't believe it is Pancake Day today!! Here are a couple of creations from an inky, and not so inky session last night ...
I love blue and red as a combination, and it always looks so striking on a white background. The flowers were die cut from my TH tattered florals die, before being stamped over with a Hero Arts script stamp. I simply layered them up, with a pearl in the middle, and added some punched leaves and the sentiment.
CHallenges:
Craft Your Passion - red, white and blue
Less is More - diescuts/punches
Stamp with Fun - shapes
The pink Elephant - print it
Secret Craft Saturday challenge - Bingo (gems, flowers, leaves)
And having been all clean and simple ...
... time to get the inks out!! The card base was covered in wild honey distress ink and then I used a mask and more distress ink to get the harlequin pattern. I stamped the Eiffel Tower TH stamp directly onto the base and added some Paris stamps. The weathered clock is diecut from grunge paper and distressed using barn door distress stain. The tickets was distressed and cut out, and I added the charm to it. I made the flower using lace and added a grungey centre. Had very pretty coloured fingers at the end!!!
Challenges:
1 StopCraft - create your own background
Totally Gorguss - lace
Simon Says Stamp and Show - london, Paris, New York
Creative Stamp Friends - inspired by a song (I love Paris)
