I am thrilled to announce that my card was selected as winner of the March Challenge over at Die Cut Divas. Thanks so much! It is a fun challenge to enter!!!
Hello and welcome
I’m back with a reminder for the current Penny Black Saturday Challenge! This month the theme is Anything Goes (optional Think Spring). I hope you have the chance to join in the fun!
My card features no-line watercolouring of PB Magnolia Rhapsody using Distress Inks and my misti. When dry, I added a little Inktense pencils for extra detail.
The panel was then given a stitched die cut edge.
CUTplorations ‘Birthday’ die was used to cut the word at the bottom of the panel along with 3 others in white. These were adhered together before being glued back into the flower panel.
This finished panel was then layered to kraft and green card stock before being added to the card front.
I seldom make any Easter cards, but love to use lots of flowers on my cards. Spring flowers make me happy and make life beautiful!
Please head over to our blog to check out the wonderfully inspirational work by the rest of the Design Team! I hope you will find the time to join our challenge this month.
I look forward to seeing what you create! Good luck!
Thanks so much for taking the time to visit. I love to read your comments.
Have a great week!
Cheers
Helen
