Blues

I've managed to make a card to cover two challenges again - this is getting to be a habit!!  The Funky Hand challenge for this month is 'January Blues' and I've used papers from the Jovial Man collection on the Colour Me Happy CD.  What I particularly like about these CDs is that you can take the papers onto the workspace and change the size and scale which I reckon works well.. The other challenge is Forgotten Friday on Judith's blog and the forgotten elements are the floral image which is a stamp from Chocolate Baroque Fantasy Meadow and one from the set which I'd so far not used, also the die cut tag in blue is from a Sizzix die which I really NEEDED back in November from Stampin Up and to my shame this is the first time it had been taken out of the packet!!  The birthday greeting is also a SU stamp and is on punched shapes from SU.

  1. This is a great card Aquarius. I really like how you have used the same spotted paper but at two different sizes. It looks great. Thanks for joining in with this months Get Funky Challenge.

  3. I'm still cutting out rubber & trying to use Forgotten things........ maybe I should try to get myself doing this on Friday's too. I like the way your circular framing of the image echoes the spots on the papers.
    Have a good weekend.

  6. Lovely card Val. Especially like the way you've changed the sizing on the backing paper. Must say I do love this die.......it's one that until you see it being used you would overlook.

  7. Hi Val, I hope that you are feeling better now. Thanks so much for joining in Forgotten Friday this week. I have those same Stampin Up greetings, they are a great set. The dotty papers are great intwo different sizes, and I like the use of the blue and green matting that you've used with them. I have neglected those flower stamps too. So many stamps, not enough time!
