It's time for our mid month reminder at Stamping Sensations, the optional challenge them is Spring, with some lovely prizes courtesy of Aall & Create, our fabulous sponsor this month.
I made a card using my favourite spring colours of green and yellow and a pretty daffodil stamp that was a magazine cover gift some time ago. The embossed panel with the aperture is cut from card that I had previously smooshed and sprayed with brushos and shimmer powder. I layered it onto a square of pale yellow cardstock with the stamped sentiment already in place. The daffodil spray is coloured with markers and fussy cut an d I added 3 tiny pearls to finish.
As always there's loads of fabulous creations from the rest of the team, so please do pop over to the main challenge blog for some inspiration and for full details of prizes and how to join in.
Thanks for visiting, have a good week.

That really is a beautiful colour combo you have used here and a stunning card. I love spring time in the garden. It has been nice enough the past two days to have lunch in the summer house with the doors open. Quite a few busy bummble bees and a couple of butterflies seen already this week. hugs Mrs A.

I love the way you layered up the panels, Chris, and that smoothed background is wonderful. Your flower spray is beautifully colored. Thanks for sharing your card with us at The Flower Challenge.
ReplyDeleteYour card for the mid-month reminder at Stamping Sensations is absolutely delightful! The combination of green and yellow hues along with the pretty daffodil stamp truly captures the essence of spring. The embossed panel with the aperture adds such a lovely touch, and the tiny pearls are the perfect finishing detail.
ReplyDeletePretty daffodils and love that embossed aperture panel, xoxo
