Merry Monday Challenge #1
Lesley at Always Playing with Paper has started a great challenge for this year! This is the first one - she gives the sketch and we make a Christmas card each week. If I can take part most weeks, I will have a nice stash of cards ready by the end of the year! Thank you Lesley!
I have used SU Poppy Parade, Garden Green DSP and Whisper white here. The image is from Heartfelt Creations, I have coloured it with Copic Markers three times and then cut out and layered the flower. There are tiny rhinestones in the centre. The small flowers have Peach Spica on them and SU pearls in their centres. The embossed background is done with an SU embossing folder and the border is done with an SU border punch.
I have gold embossed the greetings which is a JustRite Stampers stamp and cut it out with a Spellbinders die.
