The Allsorts Challenge this time is **anything goes with the option of adding red flowers** . There is a lovely prize and some great ideas from the Design Team. The idea came to me for this card while I was walking home from meeting some friends for coffee and I've used a die set which has been in my stash for a considerable time and despite it being a 'must have' at the time, I'm ashamed to say it has never been out of the packet 🙄. I chose a DL card blank and inked some random splatters using two different stamps and die cut the 'coffee rings' from a scrap of 'inky play' card which has also been lying around for some time. The flowers and leaves were also die cut from scraps.
Splatters - random stamps from Stampin' Up retired sets
Rings - die from Sizzix Coffee Rings
Flowers - Creative Expressions Dandelion Clocks die set
Hi Val,
ReplyDeletethis is such a very lovely card and a wonderful design also.
Love the coffe cup rings and your splaters look brilliant.
Great red flowers also.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.

Well done non using your unused stash! I really like the rings and the flowers are beautiful. I'm always scared to splatter so perhaps I should get a stamp.
