U Rock!

Happy Thursday, or Friday-Eve as it seems to be called in blogging land!

Just popping in with a quick card today. I made this card after seeing this photo on Jay Gees Nook




What stood out for me was the grey brick work and the chevron detail of the framed photo, both seen in the main picture. Plus I do love this combo of colours which is very close to Colourq's challenge. I have stuck to Colourq's actual challenge colours and designed my card with Jay Gees picture in mind.


I decided to have a go at stamping the chevrons and stars across the card and centre paper then lifting the centre card on foam pads. It was a bit tricky to get it all lined up but I think I almost managed it.....a bit wonky in a few places and I assure you I was only drinking peppermint tea, no Gin at this time!!

Have a rocking day x

Used in my card:
PTI chevron stamps
Papersmooches sentiment sampler stamps
Craft Meow's retro foundation stamps
Memento inks-dandelion, london fog, bahama blue
Whispers ink-grand cranberry
Ribbon stash
