I love the sound of this week's
CD Sunday Challenge: Garden Pleasures. Now I didn't make my card on Sunday because I was planting up some pots and tubs with flowers, thinking over what CD to choose...
In the end I went with two. The first uses a stunning wisteria topper from the Joanna Sheen Tom Mielko CD Workbook. I've made an easel card using my Spellbinders Radiant Rectangles dies to frame the image. I embossed an oval from the set onto the base card, masked it off and then used tapestry stamps to add more wisteria round the edge. The sentiment (Stampin Up) looked a bit bare when I took the mask off so I added a few extra tendrils. After all, wisteria never stays where it is supposed to!
Second card is a soft and pretty image from Jane Shasky's Heart of the Garden CD, very simple with a toning DP (Memory Box I think) and some twine added.
I'm also entering my cards for:
Crazy Challenge - summertime
Creative Stamp Friends - summer
City Crafter - summertime
Two beautiful cards Anne, but I have to say the first is my favorite, I love wisteria, it looks so gorgeous when it's in blossom. Thanks for joining in at CD Sunday this week.

They are both beautiful cards Anne. I especially like the wisteria one where your stamped base to the easel goes brilliantly with the lovely main image.

ReplyDeleteTwo lovely cards Anne. Hard to choose a favourite but I think the Wisteria has it. Such a beautiful image and reminds me of one we had in a previous garden.
