B for Beautiful




 A quick mid month reminder of our January challenge at
The theme is 
Something Beginning with B or 
Anything Goes. 
The prize is a Visible Image stamp set and  co-ordinating stencil.

I used  a design paper from Aall & Create, a 'Beautiful' word die from MFT and the same stamp from 
Visible Image as on my previous card for this challenge, stamping the image first then using the die and piecing it all back together- a bit like doing a jigsaw puzzle, stamped the rest of the sentiment and adding some green glossy dots.

As always, there's loads of inspiration over at Stamping Sensations so head on over to take a look.
Thanks for visiting, enjoy the rest of the weekend.

    I agree with Pinky, it would make a great card for both and I do love the way you put it together Chris.
    I am missing my crafting but don't seem to find my mojo or the time :)) xx

    WOW, this is fabulous. That background just makes the silhouetted image pop, that's GENIUS!! Lots of wonderful work, you certainly have an eye for color and design. Well done, thanks for playing along with us over at A Cut Above.
