Floral @ MAWTT

Hi guys,

It is my turn to host the challenge over at MAWTT and as we are well and truly into Spring I decide that florals was the way to go. I do not use my flower stuff often enough, so this made me have a look at what I had and make something.

I used a fancy flower stamp set that came free with a magazine. I stamped the inside of the flower using 'evergreen' Distress ink, and the outside of the petals with Crushed Sapphire Distressed ink. I also stamped the sentiment from the same set in between the two flowers. Finally I added some vintage style toppers.

I woul like to enter this card into the following challenges:

CountryView - Spring

AYLI - Flowers or ribbons (This is a difficult one - I have gone with flowers if I am posting the card, as I prefer to use ribbon as bows).

Something Blue @ I Love Promarkers

Hi guys,

We have a new challenge fr you over at I Love Promarkers, with an optional theme of something blue. Quite apt with all the storms we are having in the UK at the moment!! We have a new sponsor for this challenge - Oddball Art by Lizzy Love - and I have used Big Eye Flower Girl Noora. (I am so sorry this is posted later than expected - I had scheduled it, but apparently didn't then click on publish!! Grrr).

I used a pale blue card blank from The Works.

After printing the image I coloured her with the following Promarker pens - Hair = Ivory, Tulip Yellow and Sandstone. Skin = Blush and Ivory. Others = Tawney Owl, Metallic Gold, Marine, Poppy, Twilight Sky, Royl Blue, Soft Peach and Amethyst. Her dress and night socks are coloured with watercolour pencils. I then cut the image on my paper trimmer from Hobbycraft - using the scalloped blade.

Finally I added paper flowers, a butterfly and some pearls for the flower centres.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:
