Morning Lovely Blogging Friends....
Today I have to hang my head in shame, as my card is so very CAS - not a colouring pen in sight...... and it's all because I didn't organise myself properly and get ahead when I should have. Hmmmmmmmmf - when have I EVER been organised?? LOL! I'm a proper last-minute-Lizzy!
My card is my DT card for In The Pink - our new challenge theme is 'WITH LOVE' - and as this wonderful die has been sitting patiently waiting to be used, I decided it's turn had come! Now, with it being such a fancy flourish, there isn't really a lot I could add - and certainly not a sentiment - so it is how it is and the 'with love' sentiment is inside. I did do a little broderie anglais type border using a die - and threaded some ribbon through that.. and believe me, by the time I'd used my pokey tool to get all those little holes clear, I could have coloured an image!!
Materials used:
Impression Obsession Heart Flourish Die
Memory Box Border Die
Gems and Ribbon from Stash
Hope you like what I did and that you'll join us over at In The Pink for a play!

Well I think there is no apology needed nor hanging of head in shame as I think this card is beautiful and elegant - cards don't always need to have a coloured image to be fabulous - it's all in the design and this is designed perfectly - nuff said!!!
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day.
