Two Challenges.

Close up of home made flower.

Whoo, hoo, I've posted a challenge card!! Not been here for ages what with holidays and then returning to work. I've made a few cards and have made this one at the weekend.

I made this card for my daughter's friend. The image is a Tilda stamp - coloured with Promarkers. She is sitting on a ribbon in which there's a knot (Truly Scrumptious extra) I used My Mind's Eye pink paper for the bp. The background card is Bazzill card which I've distressed around the edges with a craft knife and then inked with Distress inks - Dusty Concorde and Aged Mahogany. I scored some of the card with the knife and I like the effect the ink has in these cuts. I used a Martha Stewart punch for the border and a Wild Orchid Crafts rose in the corner with Martha Stewart punched leaves. I made the flowers on the right hand side using flower shapes which I cut on the Cricut. I inked these with the Distress Inks. I used pearls, stickles and a Cardcraft sentiment to finish. Only thing is it wouldn't go in the envelope!!

I'd like to enter it into two challenges:

Truly Scrumptious Sketch Challenge

(Use a knot)

and

Totally Tilda

(Make your own flower)

LOTV Thank You Card ~ Challenge No 54

Just made this card quick as a thank you to my friends at work for the beautiful bouquet of flowers I received when I was off the last two weeks. The image is a Lili of the Valley stamp called 'Teddy Bouquet' which I thought was quite apt. It's coloured with Promarkers and I added gems and glitter. The mounts are cut on the Cricut as is the greeting (from Walk in my Garden) The bp is from Papermania - Blueberry . I added flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts and pearls from Craft Obsessions. I'm going to enter it in the LOTV Challenge Blog this week ~ Challenge No 54, another lovely sketch by Bev.
