Good morning and happy weekend.
This fortnight our challenge theme at Sweet Stampin' is
INSPIRED BY...A SONG/BOOK/FILM
I think you can probably guess the song I chose!!! Not very original but I needed to make a card for Granddaughter Ruby. It's hard to believe that our sturdy little tomboy has grown into a tall and willowy young lady- but she still gives the best hugs!!
The image I used is one of Mo's, coloured with copics and sporting a paper-pieced dress. I've added lots of sparkle to the balloons, which of course you can't see!
I cut a fancy shaped aperture int a square of white card and embossed the remainder, added a stencilled panel behind, matted it onto the same DP I used for the dress, fussy cut my image and popped on top. Die cut sentiments and some sparkly gems to finish.
There's plenty more ideas over at Sweet Stampin'- and we're looking forward to seeing what inspires you!
Thanks for visiting
Chris

A beautiful elegant image and card for Ruby she'll love it
Absolutely stunning, this is a favourite Mo image she is gorgeous. I love your card Chris and happy birthday to Ruby when it comes. xx
A beautiful and vibrant card perfect for a 16 year old.
Such a joyful and heartfelt card, Chris—perfectly tuned to celebrate Ruby’s milestone. The paper-pieced dress is a lovely touch, especially echoed in the background matting, and the stencilled panel adds such a soft elegance. I can just imagine the sparkle on those balloons catching the light. The shaped aperture and embossed texture give it a polished finish, and the image choice feels so full of personality and affection. Ruby is sure to feel cherished.
WoW, beautiful card Chris, love the gorgeous image in her paper pieced dress and holding sparkly balloons and fabulous card design and colours..
