Happy Tuesday,
Raining again in London and it is set to be with us all week. The good thing is that this is perfect crafting weather and yesterday I stayed inside and got inking playing with my new stamps. I decided to have a go at mixing and matching stamps from different companies to see if I could make my own pattern. I used my new Craft's Meow 'retro foundations stamps' and PTI 'basic background chevrons' rubber stamps.
If you read my blog yesterday you will see that I tried to enter the Embellish Colour Challenge but used last week's colours so this time I double checked and did the right colours!! I used these as my base. I did find it quite a challenge as I usually just like 3 colours. But it was a day for trying new things and so I was determined to have a go! And although this is not my best card I have did achieve what I had set out to do and had fun doing it..........and that is what it is really is all about!!
And here is what I came up with, a fun Birthday card:
Well I had better get myself out today and at least have a walk and do some food shopping......can't let the British weather defeat us!!
Have a good day x

Oh...this is so clever Sandie...love how you added the gems and layered the sentiment over the Chevron. Fabulous!
ReplyDeleteVery cool design, Sandie! I like that curvy line a lot, is it a single stamp?
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for playing with us at CAS-ual Fridays!
Ps: Sending some sunshine your way!
