Bloom


 Good morning. it's a quick post from me to share my inspiration card for this month's challenge at Stamping Sensations
the optional theme for July is Summer Flowers or of course you can enter with the anything stamped option. 
There are 2 wonderful prizes on offer this month

Two prizes, £25 store voucher from Crafty Individuals and two dies from Highlight Crafts


The stamp I have used is from Imagination Crafts, I've stamped with Versamark ink onto a piece of card stock which is coloured with smooshed and sprinkled Brushos, then embossed with black detail embossing powder. There was only a small piece of the brusho-ed card left but I found some DP which matched the colours well to layer it onto. I added the black frame for some contrast and diecut the word 'bloom ' twice, once from the coloured card and once from black card to add the shadow.
There are some beautiful creations from the rest of the DT over at the challenge blog, definitely worth a visit!


Thanks for stopping by today
enjoy the rest of the weekend
