It's mid month and time for more challenge inspirations from the Design Team at Stamping Sensations. The challenge this month is CAS and my second piece uses a neglected PaperArtsy stamp - in fact the flower was a 'must have' buy that hadn't been inked!
I've stamped onto white card and then again onto water colour paper, fussy cutting the flower head and colouring with Picked Raspberry DI. I used a circle mask and softly sponged the same ink to create a spotlight. The verse is another PA stamp.
The rest of the Design Team have some great inspiration for you, so please pop over to the main blog for all the challenge details.
I've 2 schedule posts today, and as it's a Grandma day, I'll be around later in the week to catch up.
Thanks for calling in.

ReplyDeleteThe sentiment has a great, decorative font and I love te addition of the sponged circle, so delicate and soft, yet it is an effective design detail.
