My next card is one that I WAS entering into two challenges....The Etsy Inspired Challenge and Wee Memories Challenge #51 sponsered by The Twinery . For the Etsy challenge I had planned on using this baby quilt for my inspiration:
...but I got a phone call right before I took the picture of it and also about an hour before the challenge closed and so completely lost track of time and didn't get it uploaded in time...oh well, it was a good call from my sister in law and I always like to get caught up with her! I did use a small bit of twine on this card....I am still learning to use twine and not try to make it "be" ribbon! Anyways, here is my card for the Wee Memories Challenge #51:
I love this flower. It is Hero Arts Stencil Flower and I find it is one of those stamps I turn to over and over again. I also just bought the Papertrey Turning a New Leaf Die and the Tiny Tags Stamps and Die and think that both sets are also ones that I am going to come to rely on. I also have one other card that I made for the CR84FN Color Challenge #23 . I really love the colors of this challenge...pink, black and ivory and had fun creating a card.
I used a LaBlanche Stamp, The Rose, Spellbinders Dies, an old newspaper stamp from Cornish Farms and a Hero Arts sentiment. I distressed some ivory cardstock with Antique Linen and Worn Lipstick ink. Finally, I finished off the card with Glimmer Dust and some Hero Arts "bling". Hope you like it!
I hope you have a great weekend!
Be well,
Sheila
