I hope everyone out there in craft land is well - I'm hoping to pop over to Blythe Craft Studio later today - they are having a demonstration day (bet I can't get home without spending any money!)
I have another make for you today for the new challenge at Fantasy Stampers and for the next two weeks the new theme is
'PEACHES & CREAM'
So, here's what I made using a pretty little stamp from Clear Impressions ...
I have layered some peach 'Adorable Scorable' cardstock onto a cream card blank, then added my pretty flecked paper (it is cream with a slight peach fleck embedded into it).
I stamped directly onto the paper with my Spiced Marigold distress ink (I added a little Versamark ink to the stamp first, which seems to give a clearer stamped image when using distress inks). The gorgeous little birdie was from a freebie set that I got with a magazine some time ago - it is from Clear Impressions and is called 'Feathered Friends'.
I added a piece of cream ribbon, together with a bit of peach twine and a little pearlised heart embellishment to finish off my triple bow.
Other embellishments include a stamped sentiment using a brand new stamp set from Stampin' Up called 'Endless Birthday Wishes' (I can see this is going to be another favourite!) and three tiny little peach buttons.
Why not pop over and check out some more fab inspiration from my design team over at the challenge - hope to see you there.
Hugz, Jan xx
Hi Jan this is a gorgeous card I love the stamps you have used and the soft colours. I hope you have a good time at the craft demo and don't spend too much. Take care. Hugs Jackie
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card Jan. I love this colour combination and that hummingbird is devine. The trick with the Versamark is brilliant and does stop distress inks pooling on clear acrylic stamps.
