I would like to say a huge thank you to the team over at Stay Crafty with Hero for selecting my card as Winner of their Stay Crafty with Hero – January 2024 Challenge – everything old is new again! I am thrilled!
Hello and welcome
Here is the new challenge over at Time Out Challenges! – Inspired by Words.
CASE The Designer Sarah Gray – former Time Out DT Member and owner of Funky Fossil Designs.
Our wonderful sponsor is Funky Fossil Designs. They’re generously offering a £25.00 store credit which must be used within 90 days.
I had lots of ideas around with this fun design and I finally decided on some butterflies.
After adding some ink smooches and adding a little light stamping with HA – Friends text stamp and some circcles form HA – Mixed Design Borders to complete my corner background.
The butterflies from HA – Antique Engraving stamp set were black heat embossed and watercoloured before being fussy cut.
The sentiment stamp and die came from HA – Flowers and Bees set.
I was happy with the way it turned out. A great CASE challenge.
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 you all have a chance to enjoy some crafting time.
Cheers
Helen
