Hi all, today I have a card that really challenged me! It's for the Play Date Cafe, and the colours are based on the photo below:
A gorgeous picture of fresh bright colours, but I struggled! I made 3 attempts at this, and this is my final effort - I'm still not completely happy with it,but it's growing on me!
Apologies for the terrible picture, it's another grey wet miserable day here, the light is awful, and I'm not a great photographer!
Anyway, enough of the moaning and groaning, I have used the little snowman from Waltzingmouse Stamps set Sewing Box Christmas. He is stamped in Memento London Fog ink, and coloured with Promarkers.
The red panel he is mounted on is stamped with the snowflake image from Season's of Love in Versamark ink and edged with a Martha Stewart punch.
Then wrapped some red and green bakers twine from The Ribbon Girl, around a kraft panel, and mounted them onto a piece of ivory linen card edged with Turquoise Blue chalk ink.
Then stamped a label from Holiday Labels 14 in Ladybug Red ink, and added the sentiment from two different sentiments in WMS Frame It stamp set.
Went round all the edges with some white chalk ink and added lots of gems!
Thanks for stopping by, and have a great weekend!
