With our clocks going back 1 hour we had lots of time to get things done today, and there has been a bit of a spring clean in some areas of the house today (even thought it is autumn in Australia!), but that means that another weekend is almost over and I will be back to a busy working week, I so wish stamping and paper crafting could be my day job, one day I hope it to be.
In between cupboard organisation and cooking dinner I've managed to create a card with the help of 2 challenges - Freshly Made Sketches and Stamp Ink Paper.
The colour challenge had me at Dark Pink, hahaha, there's a surprise... not! My colour selection is Mint Macaron, Melon Mambo and Granny Apple Green for this creation.
I stamped the edges with a mix of the colours using 2nd generation stamping (stamping off once on scrap before stamping the card base), and lightly embossed the centre rectangle with the Subtle Embossing folder to give a hint of texture, mounting using a piece of corrugated card stock. I flooded Mint Macaron and a touch of Granny Apple Green on Shimmery White card and when dry cut the dragonfly, lastly white embossing the sentiment on a strip of Melon Mambo.
For a touch of bling, add some Frost White Shimmer Paint over the sentiment strip and randomly on the stamped edge.
Thanks for visiting today, I hope you enjoyed viewing my project. Stay tuned for more inspiration and tips this month. If you live in Australia and don't already have a demonstrator I'd love love to be yours.
