I made this card following the sketch on the Sketch and Stash Challenge I also followed the colour scheme on the Cupcake Craft Challenge , there is a selection so I chose pink/brown. It qualifies for the ABC Challenge which is 'F' for flower and also the Spoonful of Sugar Challenge which is 'gems' I am also entering this card into the last Arty Girlz Challenge which is 'stamping'. I am sorry this is the last week :-(
I used old and neglected and new stuff in this card. The tulip stamp is old and neglected and the papers are new basic grey. I used my new SU border punch for the scallped edge, the ribbon is from papermania I think. I made the flower from punches after getting the idea from Poppet, thanks for the tutorial :-)The gems are by hotfix.
I was thinking of sending this card to my niece who'll be 17 soon, she lives in Holland, hence the tulip ! but do you think it's a bit 'old lady'??? Amy thinks she'll like it but I'm not convinced, I appreciate your HONEST opinion, I can always send a different 'trendy' one !
It's a public holiday here in Malta and we're having a tidying up day, well, Ray is :-) He's cleaning the yard ready for BBQ season :-) summer's almost here !!! yay
Gypsy is recovering from her op (to prevent more kittens !!) on my knee, I can't move otherwise she growls and bites me so thats why I'm not helping Ray !!!! :-)
bye for now ,,,,
