Hello!
We have a new challenge for February at the Crafts Galore Encore Challenge Blog. The theme is always Anything Goes.
Our sponsor for February is Morgan's Art World who are generously offering 3 digi stamps to the challenge winner.
I was given a digi stamp to work with and I chose the beautiful Fae 3. Here is my card:
Fae is coloured with Copics and die cut with a stitched rectangle die. I added some white Posca pen highlights to the flower centres. I mounted the image onto pink card and set aside whilst I made the background.
The background is made from white card, swiped over with a mini Distress ink pad in Spun Sugar. I then lightly added some Memento Rose Bud ink through a stencil to created a 'faded' pattern. I inked the edges of the background card, first with Rose Bud and then with Ranger Black ink.
I found some pretty laced and attached it to the card and topped it with some pink ribbon. The background was then matted onto pink card which was edged lightly with black ink.
The image and mat were attached on foam pads at a slight angle and I added a die cut butterfly border to the top right hand side. I made some die cut paper flowers and inked the edges of the petals. Once shaped and assembled I added some golden Prills to the centres, attached them to the card and finished them off with some die cut leaves.
The sentiment was die cut three times from pink card and glued together for some dimension. Finally 3 pearls were placed in the top left corner.
Many thanks to our sponsor
