I was really excited to be chosen as a Guest Designer for February at House Mouse & Friends Monday Challenges, it's been very hard not to to let the news slip:). Thank you so much to the HM & Friends Team for their friendly welcome:). I found the theme really challenging; it is to use your favourite stamp. Deceptively simple and yet so tricky LOL! I looked over my stamps and coloured several images (you may have seen them blogged recently) and ended up with one of my new stamps as my current favourite. This is from a Joanna Sheen unmounted Spring set and it is just adorable!
It's coloured with Copics and Glossy Accents. The sentiment is also from the set, the green DP is Basic Grey Sugar Rush and I've embossed white card, sponged Mustard Seed Distress Ink over it and stitched it down. Add in a bit of bling, a bit of sunny yellow/orange ribbon from stash and that's my card!
I'm also entering my card for the following challenges:
Woodware - embossing
Incy Wincy - colour me wonderful - favourite colouring method is Copics!
Simply Create - bold and bright
Aly's Sunday sketch - bling bling
One Stitch at a Time - make it pretty
What a wonderful spring card!! I love the colors!! Thanks for joining us this week at Woodware USA!!
