Crafty Calendar November Challenge


Good morning, this is the first of two posts today, I'm sharing my DT card for our November Challenge at Crafty Calendar

The theme for this month is 

'Anything Goes'
and our lovely sponsor is



The team were given some fabulous images by the sponsor and I chose to use the beautiful  Rose Stamp on my card. This lovely digi comes in several versions including an uncoloured one which is the one I chose. 
I stamped the image onto a die cut square of white cardstock, the stamped the script stamp over the top of the image  using grey versafine clair ink, I flicked some orange coloured brusho (very diluted!) over the top, think I was a tad too enthsiastic as it took ages to clean off my desk afterwards even though I thought I'd covered it- the paint went further than I meant it to!
I stamped the image again, coloured it with copics, fussy cut and adhered over the top of the first image...this way the delicate lines are all there without any white edges from the cutting.
I finished with a stamped sentiment.
Please do have a look see at the challenge blog, there are some beautiful cards from my lovely teamies for you to enjoy- and we hope to have you play along so we can enjoy  your beautiful creations too.
thanks for visiting- I'll be back later today with another DT make.

What a lovely creation Chris, stamping the text in a softer shade makes for a very pleasing design and doesn't overshadow the bloom.

Hi Chris, another wonderful card - I love that you've stamped the script over the top really adds a great dimension to it.

I do the 'splatter everything' trick when I'm using Mica Spray - unfortunately I'm now crafting on the kitchen table not a craft room table and so our table is rather, hmmmm shall we say 'interesting' looking?!
