Another exhausting week is almost over, but a busy weekend still lies ahead - at some point I might stop long enough to have a proper break! Never mind!
On with another challenge card nonetheless. Kim has set this weeks challenge over at Crafty Catz and she would like to see Stitching - Real or Faux on your creations this week
We are sponsored this week by Sami Stamps who are offering our lucky winner a $12 gift card.
My card this week:
I coloured this gorgeous image with promarkers in the following colours; Apricot, Oatmeal, Blush, Terracotta, Spice and Honeycomb, Dusky Rose, Maroon and Burgundy.
The papers are from the Floral Fantasy pad, designed by Louise Tiler which came free with a magazine, edges dusted with Memento Ink - Bamboo Leaves and Versa Magic Ink - Pixie Dust and Perfect Plumeria.
I had drew the background shape on a scrap of paper, drew intersecting lines, cut it up to act as a template and then settled on four papers to build it back up. Inked all the edges, stuck it down then drew faux stitching all around. I mounted the image on a precut oval which I edged with Perfect Plumeria then added more faux stitching.
A couple of butterflies punched from shimmer paper and some gems finished the card.
I hope you like it and please pop by the challenge blog to see more fabulous inspiration. Until next time though, happy crafting!
