The Allsorts Challenge theme this week is ** more than one fold ** but as I'm not really into fancy folded cards I've chosen to go with ** anything goes ** this time. I've used some stamps which I recently purchased in a sale which is still ongoing. I started by inking a background with Distress Oxides, over-stamping with some 'texture' stamps in the same colours and then adding some small text which was embossed in white. Final addition to the background was the word sentiment using Versafine Clair. The flower was built up by stamping the various shapes onto white card, colouring using Inktense pencils and then fussy cutting before sticking into place. The frame around the edge was drawn with a fine liner pen.
Allsorts have a birthday event coming up so do keep a look out for more details - promise of some great prizes
