Welcome!
My card uses a Kaisercraft Pina Colada stamp set I had picked up as a give away. I’ve been trying to decide how to use, when the latest JUGS challenge was announced.
I did some no line watercolouring with Distress Inks, stamped the half circle with Delicata gold ink, added the die cut and sentiment from Simon Says Stamps.
There is a faint pink stencilling and the piece was mounted on an embossing folder background.
I was quite happy with the end result.
Challenges: Just Us Girls – Photo Week #408, Seize the Birthday – Anything Goes, CAS(E) this Sketch! – ctd#236 and Happy Little Stampers – Watercolour Challenge – Optional twist – Blooms.
Thanks for stopping by

Thanks so much Ina. you are very kind. I’m glad you liked it. I thought it was good fun. As to the photo link, my computer just does it sometimes. I sent it through twice with no luck. My mission is to improve my blog and iron out some of my issues. I really appreciate your continued support. Have a great day. x
