Good morning, a new Challenge at Crafty Catz starts today-
the theme is Anything Goes with an optional twist of Add A Sentiment,
chosen by our lovely Ginny who is hosting this fortnight.
Our sponsor for this challenge is Di's Digi Stamps.
I made an easel card using some hoarded papers from Heartfelt Creations, not much of the pad left now but it's at least 10 years old. I cut a few extra flowers from left over scraps and layered them up for dimension. The sentiment, an Indigo Blue stamp, is stamped and embossed with white EP . I've added a die cut swirl ( very old TH Sizzix Bigz die), loads of tiny pearls and a large die cut 'celebrate' as this was a birthday card for my lovely daughter- I think the beautiful sentiment is just perfect for her!
There's plenty more inspiration to be found over at Crafty Catz, some beautiful projects from the rest of the team. Hope you can find the time to join us for this challenge.
Thanks for visiting, have a good day.
