I think I might just be catching up a bit although there is still some of the dreaded housework staring me in the face this morning. The people at Addicted to Stamps and More have given us a bingo challenge this week, where we can chose three items from a line to make a project.
I selected DIES, BIRTHDAY AND FREE (embossing) to make this card. Background paper is from Prima, the main image is a digital stamp from Just Inklined, punched out with a Stampin' Up punch and popped onto an embossed frame by Sizzix (SU), I die cut a Top Note shape, embossed, sanded and inked to show up the detail. The swirl was a Marianne die cut from a scrap of spritzed card (forgotten what it was spritzed with now as it was from the bits box), as was theSizzix dragonfly. I used a few odd bits for the flower embellishment and to die cut for the sentiment.
Now I really must step away from the computer and press on with the h****work - excuse the rude word!!
A great choice Val, I love the colours they go so well with the hydrangea. Lots of lovely dies you've used there too.

Beautiful card and the colours are perfect. Hugs Rita xx
ReplyDeleteYour colours are gorgeous & I love the way you've used both the pink & blue colouring of the hydrangea. The green embellishing picks out those leaves beautifully too & I love the way your die-cut/punched dragonfly echoes the little one in the patterned paper top left.
ReplyDeleteAll the best with the h****work.
