Good morning, the May Challenge begins today over at Stamping Sensations. The optional theme for this month, chosen by Lynn, is FEMININE but as always you can choose the ANYTHING GOES option as long is there is visible stamping on the front of your card/project.
There is a prize of some lovely stamps and dies from
I used a stamp from pre-used a set I bought as part of a job lot from Ebay. The packaging was incomplete so I can't tell you the make. There were two stamps, the same image but different sizes, I used the larger one. I stamped it onto piece of white cardstock which I'd cut with a shaped edge die. I added the stencilling, Lavinia stencil, pink and mauve inks.
I stamped the image again onto white card, coloured with copic markers, fussy cut and attached over the image on the stencilled panel, then stamped the flowery bit a few times coloured and cut them out to add some dimension. I adhered it to a black card blank and added the tiny pearls.
There's some lovely creations from the rest of the team to be enjoyed over at the challenge blog.
Thanks for visiting today

Hi Chris, a wonderful card, the coloring of the woman from behind is perfect and the flowers seem three-dimensional. I love the background with the black frame around it. Thanks for joining Creations in Pink Challenge Tatiana x DT
Such a beautifully feminine card with stunning details. The stenciled background complements the image perfectly, and the added flowers create lovely dimension. The coloring, especially on the hair, is absolutely gorgeous.
