You're not alone
Good evening everyone! Hope you had a great day. Mine was long... and stressful! So my gift to myself tonight was to relax while coloring a fabulous stamp from Elisabeth Bell it's part of the Belles' n Whistles collection. Unfortunately the stamp doesn't have it's name on the packing :( So I have no idea what's it name...
I had such a great time that not only did I color it up but I had time to make a card with it! And I'm playing for the very 1st time over at Elisabeth bells world challenge for their Lace and pearl challenge! Well since I had colored an image I thought it was the perfect time to actually make a card for the challenge! And the theme was just perfect for this sweetie.
I have vowed to myself to use more of my stamps!!! I purchase them and then they just stay in their packs... so with less DT work coming I will have some more crafty time just that way.
If you want my card you can find it in my Etsy store here.
I used some paper from Kaiser craft - Confetti it was a freebie with my great Quickcards magazine this month! And it came with some vellum borders so I used one as well. I added of course some lace and pearls from my stash. And I just had to add some flowers. For this card I decided to go with a bit of a Shabby Chic look! So I distressed the edges of the paper and I used some embossing on the sentiment and the fence. I used my Nesting rectangles and my nesting eyelet rectangle from Quickuts. I also used my eyelet circle and large circle from Spellbinder.
Here's a closer look at the stamped image (that came out super clear!!! sometimes I have trouble with clear stamps but not that time!) that I colored with my copics. I used a great sentiment from Create with TLC.
I'm entering this card in the following challenges:
