* Crafts Galore Encore: Purple Pansies


Hello!

Happy New Year!
I hope 2019 brings you happiness, good health and peace.

We have a new challenge for January at the Crafts Galore Encore Challenge Blog. The theme is always Anything Goes.

Our sponsor for January is Sprinkle and Sparkle who are generously offering a $15 store voucher to the challenge winner.

I was given a digi stamp to work with and I chose the Purple Pansies:



I used the pre coloured version of the digi stamp and arranged the elements around the sentiment before printing it our three times. I used a stitched rectangle to die cut the base. I added more colour to the background with Pan Pastels and a soft brush. I fussy cut the rows of pansies and leaves from the second set to decoupage around the sentiment. Finally, a third set of pansies were fussy cut to be added as a top layer.
I matted my base onto shimmery dark green paper and attached it to a white card base. It makes a beautiful spring card.



Many thanks to our sponsor
I hope you'll take a look at their store and enter our challenge with the chance to win a $15 store voucher.


I hope you'll pop to over to Crafts Galore Encore to see the DT's wonderful designs.

We'd love to see your creations. 

Remember the challenge is always 'Anything Goes' and so you can create any type of project - it doesn't have to be a card.

Thanks for stopping by today!
xoxo
