This week over at Penny Black the challenge is to create a card based on "Romance"..... and there is also a new challenge site started today called The Pink Elephant and to kick start them off the challenge is to create a card using the colours Pink, Black & White....
So I decided to go for another 2 in 1 here... wrapped 3 strips of cerise ribbon around some black card stock & stuck to my card, stamped little hedgie onto some white card and coloured using Bruynzeel Aquarel pencils... this was quite fun as the card is not glossy but does have a coating on it so the colour initially puddled before drying... added some dots, then distressed & inked the edges... mounted using silicone. Inked the edges of the card, stamped the word love & added some adhesive stones to finish off...
Well I hope you're all joining in the fun this weekend & now I'm off to get ready to go to the supermarket... yuck my worst hate of the week, but it has to be done.... with any luck I'll get another challenge done later on...
Happy crafting
