I got a burst of late-night inspiration, to make a little card for Makeesha's Inkspirations challenge tonight. I think I've panicked because, after 6 days off, I actually have to go to work tomorrow. Amazing how getting off the computer for half an hour can be quite productive!
The 'challenge' (and I use that term loosely) was to use these yummy colours together:
I wanted my card to be smaller than a full-sized card, so I used one of my trusty Pendant Notes (*love*). I simply cut a panel of Rich Razzleberry card to cover the die-cut design on the inside of the card, and covered the front of the card with my creation, which looks like this (photographed in less-than-ideal conditions at 11.00pm):
Stamps: Very Vintage jumbo wheel, All A Flutter, Short & Sweet
Card: Kraft Pendant Note, Whisper White, Rich Razzleberry
Ink: Rich Razzleberry and Old Olive stampin' pads, Sahara Sand stampin' pad & marker
Other: Watercolour paper, Aquapainter, Old Olive brads, Word Window Punch, Whisper White taffeta ribbon, sponge daubers, edge distressing tool, paper snips
Christine, this card is gorgeous. The white ribbon is the perfect accessory for the card. Your butterfies look fabulous.
thanks for sharing
