Good morning! I'm here today with my second post for the ABC Challenge,where I have had the pleasure of being their guest designer for February. This fortnight, the challenge theme is "F for Flowers", something I am sorely missing right now, as my gardens are blanketed in snow.
Here, I have made a card using 'Tilda with little pocket', one of the many Magnolia images available from our sponsor this week....Stamp and Create. She has been coloured with water colours, for a change, while the sky has been created with Pan Pastels.
I played a bit with the fancy die cut mat, giving it some distress stain, some stamping, and finally some inca gold. A co-ordinating ribbon and bow and one little gemstone heart are the only additional embellishments.
Other supplies used:
Paper from Webster's Pages - Life's Portrait
Spellbinders die - Fleur de Lis Rectangles
Whimsy - Dainty Notables 4 die and Everyday Sayings stamp
So we do hope that you join us this week for your chance to win, and our chance to see your creations. Be sure to stop by the challenge blog for inspiration from the DT, who always have something wonderful to share.

ReplyDeleteThis card is so lovely! Like you, my garden is still buried in snow, so I appreciated seeing this gorgeous burst of flowers! I thought you did an amazing job painting with watercolors and really liked how you used Pan Pastels on the sky for some added variety. Excellent use of your die cuts and I like how you combined it all with the perfect patterned background. You did an amazing job on this card and I'm so glad you shared your talents with us here at the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge blog!
