I was thrilled that my card was selected for an Honorable Mention over at Pammie’s Inky Pinkies Challenge! Thank you so much to everyone for selecting my card.
Hello and welcome
It’s time for a reminder for the current challenge over at Penny Black Saturday Challenge! March’s theme is Anything Goes (Optional – ‘Flowers’). I hope you have a chance to join in the fun!
As usual, we are sponsored by the awesome
Prize – a $20 voucher!
My card features PB Slapstick stamp – Demure. I love PB stamps as there are such wonderful images!
I decided to do this card a little differently. Instead of colouring the flowers on the card, I coloured them and added them on top of the image.
To start, stamp once on the card front and once on a piece of scrap card.
The flowers were watercoloured with Distress Inks. The second set of flowers were fussy cut and layered over the card front flowers using raised tape to give a 3D look.
Gold ink was added along with splatters.
The panel was then layered before being added to the card front.
The sentiment is from an old set from the Everyday Greetings stamp company.
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 and will be sure to check out your blog.
I hope all is going well for you all! Stay safe!
Cheers
Helen

Your flowers look fantastic and love how you added the dimension with the flower itself, adds so much interest to the card. Very jealous of your splatter ability, yours is so soft and fine, mine is always big blobs. The touch of gold in the layer and splatter adds a bit of shine and all the embellishment its needs. Always so lovely to see you cards at TIME OUT!
