Happy Friday Eve,
I am popping in today to remind you to check over at TIME OUT Challenges to see if you are one of our winners and also to remind you that our current challenge is still running until next Wednesday.
The theme is:
SUMMER is with optional twist of FLOWERS
And if you go for the twist you will be in for a chance of winning $25 gift voucher from out sponsors CAS-ual Fridays Stamps (chosen randomly)
This week I have a reminder card for you but I decided this week not to go with the twist and to use one of my favourite CAS-ual Fridays stamps sets Butterbows. I was inspired by 2 other challenges in creating this card. I actually made this card a week ago when these 2 challenges came out. I had a 'ping' moment! The challenges are Fusion and CAS(E) this Sketch. Here is what I came up with:
In Summer we get a lot of thunder storms but the rainbows that follow are worth it. The photo at Fusion was the first thing to inspire this, the little row of bright flowers. And then I saw the sketch and it just all came together. Isn't it a joy when crafting works like this!
I hope you note that I couldn't get all the colours of the rainbow in to fit in with the sketch so used the sentiment for the last colour.
I hope you come and play along with us at TIME OUT Challenges and if you include flowers remember you can win $25 from CAS-ual Fridays
And my inspiration:
Sweet, delicate... Sandie!
