Flowers for a lady

 

A new month and so it's time for the new themes at the monthly challenges I am on the DT for at We Love Stamping and Stamping Sensations. My two cards are above and the explanation you will find below.

At We Love Stamping we would like to see creations suitable "For a Lady". For my DT card I used an offcut from the triple die I have been using as the edge is leaves is too nice to throw away. I then used a CC stamp coloured with Inktense pencils and some CE silhouette flower stamps along the bottom. Then I used DI inks to blend the background. I have this CC die unused as I was not sure how to use it when I think it was with a CC magazine. Glad I kept it as I quite like the effect and I used some of the die cut butterflies to put elsewhere on the card. Finally I added some fibres along the bottom.

The occasion can be anything you choose so long as it's suitable for a lady or girl and the focal element is hand stamped as our preference or digital.

There are two prizes, from Craft Stash Field of Dreams paper pad and coordinating stamps.

Our theme at Stamping Sensations is "Anything stamped with option of Floral and Fauna". For my card I used some TH stamps and spritzed the card after stamping and dragged some of the colour to shade the flowers. I used the same stamps to create a background with no colouring. The sentiment is from a PB set.

You choose the occasion, but please remember we are a stamping challenge which means the focal element of your entry must be hand stamped as our preference or digital.

Our prize is a trio from Oakwood Archer's Doodles in Bloom collection, dies, stamps and stencil.
